The anticoagulant therapy with a priority of direct oral anticoagulants is an approach to the prevention of recurrent stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) that has presently proved its efficacy and is stated in international clinical guidelines. An extensive evidence-based database demonstrates advantages of rivaroxaban over other drugs of this class in secondary prevention of stroke in AF. Furthermore, these advantages are combined with the optimal safety profile. The rivaroxaban treatment may provide the most favorable prognosis due to the prevention of recurrent stroke in AF, reducing the rate of kidney disease progression, and slowing vascular atherosclerosis. An important beneficial feature of rivaroxaban is once-a-day intake, which is important in the context of a high incidence of cognitive disorders in this patient category, and may improve their compliance and, thus, help achieving the expected profile of treatment efficacy. Thus, rivaroxaban can be regarded as a drug of choice for secondary prevention of stroke in AF.
