It is associated with high in-hospital mortality and poor long-term survival. Furthermore, patients undergoing coronary angiography commonly have comorbidities such as hypertension or congestive heart failure, which are often treated with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system-blocking agents such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers. Trials assessing the effects of these renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system-blocking agents on the subsequent development of contrast-associated acute kidney injury have shown conflicting data, suggesting both beneficial and harmful effects. Therefore, there are no clear guidelines on whether clinicians should discontinue renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system-blocking agents peri-procedurally. In this article, we review the data from trials assessing the effects of peri-procedural renin-angiotensin system-blocking agent use in patients undergoing coronary and peripheral angiography and intervention. Future studies will likely focus on the extent of damage or potential benefit of these agents on renal function, cardiac function, as well as morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is insufficient evidence to recommend discontinuation of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors prior to coronary angiography. Rivaroxaban reduces the risk of thromboembolism in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, who often also receive antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) to maintain sinus rhythm. Current guidelines contraindicate concomitant use of rivaroxaban with the popular AAD dronedarone, despite little data demonstrating interactions with AADs. This study investigates the outcomes of concomitant rivaroxaban and AAD drug use in a real-world cohort. This retrospective study included 1777 non-pe
