title: Anticoagulation with anisindione in patients who are intolerant of warfarin.
abstract: Patients who require oral anticoagulation usually receive warfarin. We used an indanedione drug, anisindione, in two patients who were intolerant of warfarin but who needed long-term oral anticoagulation. The use of this alternative oral anticoagulant is reviewed.
