Correct answer: A — Use adherence strategies and follow missed-dose advice without doubling late

This scenario assesses Edoxaban adherence in a UK pharmacy practice context. DOAC missed doses reduce protection, while inappropriate doubling increases bleeding risk. The best answer is Use adherence strategies and follow missed-dose advice without doubling late because it addresses the principal clinical, legal or safety issue before routine supply. The other options are less appropriate because they either miss the key risk, delay necessary review, or would not meet expected BNF, NICE, MEP, MHRA or GPhC practice standards.
