So it turns out this new drug my farther was given is called Apixaban, he was taken off the Warfarin in favour of this new drug, even though he was not a good candidate.

It turns out that Apixaban is a deadly drug if used in the wrong person, patients can suffer bleeding, bleeding on the brain, internal hemorrhaging and even death. Men have died due to intracerebral haemorrhage due to Apixaban, there have even been lawsuits.

I'm currently waiting for the coroners report, I should know more in the next two days.
