Popis:	Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants have provided an optimization of management of patients in the prevention of stroke in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. The lack of an effective reversal agent has remained a challenge to these agents’ widespread utilization. Idarucizumab, a specific reversal agent for dabigatran, is approved in many countries including India. However, there is limited data for its use for Indian patients. We are reporting one of the cases of its use in India where it successfully reversed dabigatran prior to mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke.
