Advantages of Eliquis or Xarelto over Coumadin?

I honestly believed I was giving up to date information about the various anticoagulants and their antidotes currently on the market.
That I gave erroneous and out of date information has left me aghast as I assume the information I gather from the Mayo Clinic, The Clevland Clinic, The University of Washington and several other well know medical centers is as up to date as it can be.
I am very sorry offering advice I had no business doing. I thought I had done adequate research, but soon learned how badly I failed in that department. I have several medical issues that I often turn to Mayo for advice and support, and I hope I may continue to do that.
With sincere apologies

Don't blame yourself @rubywitch67. Harvard Health isn't very diligent in updating or throwing out information that has become obsolete, and their articles too often lack a clear indication of the date they were written. Your other sources -- Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, and University of Washington -- had no role in giving us current information on antidotes for "blood thinners" which are medically known as anticoagulants. We all can rely on Mayo, but in discussions on Mayo Connect with people anxious to find solutions to their own medical problems, we have to be alert to the possibility of being confronted with opinions, suspicions, old news. Stay with us and give us a hand on issues that are important to you. Martin
