WARFARIN (Coumadin®) is an anticoagulant. Warfarin (Coumadin®) helps to treat or prevent clots in the veins, arteries, lungs, or heart. Warfarin (Coumadin®) stops clots from forming or getting bigger, and lets the body naturally dissolve the clots. Sometimes warfarin (Coumadin®) is called a blood thinner because you may bleed more easily while taking it; however, warfarin (Coumadin®) does not actually thin the blood. Generic warfarin (Coumadin®) tablets are available.
What should my health care professional know before I take warfarin (Coumadin®)?
They need to know if you have any of these conditions:
•If you frequently drink alcohol-containing beverage
•blood disease, bleeding disorders, hemorrhage, hemophilia or aneurysm
•bowel disease, diverticulitis, or ulcers
•diabetes
•heart valve infection
•high blood pressure
•kidney disease
•liver disease
•protein or vitamin deficiency
•psychosis
•recent surgery
•thyroid problems
•an unusual or allergic reaction to warfarin (Coumadin®) , other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
•pregnant or trying to get pregnant
•breast-feeding
How should I take this medicine (Coumadin®)?
Take warfarin (Coumadin®) tablets by mouth. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Warfarin (Coumadin®) is usually taken once a day. Swallow the tablets with a drink of water. Take your dose at the same time each day. Record your daily dose on a calendar when you take it. Do not take warfarin (Coumadin®) more often than directed.

What
if I miss a dose (Coumadin®)?
Try not to miss doses. If you do miss a dose, take it as soon as you can that
same day. If it is almost time for your next dose, take only that dose. Do not
double doses, and do not take two doses in one day unless your doctor or health
care professional tells you to; this can increase the risk of bleeding. If you
miss a dose, record the date of the missed dose and tell your doctor or health
care professional at your next visit. If you miss doses for two or more days,
call your doctor for instructions.

What should
I watch for while taking warfarin (Coumadin®)
?
Visit your doctor or health care professional for regular checks on your
progress. You will need to have your blood checked regularly to make sure you
are getting the right dose of warfarin (Coumadin®) . The blood test
that is used to monitor warfarin (Coumadin®) therapy is called the
protime (PT) or INR. Your doctor or health care professional will check your PT
or INR and decide whether or not your dose of warfarin (Coumadin®)
needs to be changed. When you first start warfarin (Coumadin®) ,
these tests are done frequently. Once the correct dose is determined and you
take your medication properly, these tests can be done less often.
While you are taking warfarin (Coumadin®) , carry an
identification card with your name, the name and dose of medicine(s) being used,
and the name and phone number of your doctor or health care professional or
person to contact in an emergency. You should discuss your diet with your
doctor or health care professional. Many foods contain high amounts of vitamin
K, which can interfere with the effect of warfarin (Coumadin®) . Your
doctor or health care professional may want you to limit your intake of foods
that contain vitamin K. Foods that have moderate to high amounts of vitamin K
include brussel sprouts, kale, green tea, asparagus, avocado, broccoli, cabbage,
cauliflower, collard greens, liver, soybean oil, soybeans, certain beans,
mustard greens, peas (blackeyed peas, split peas, chick peas), turnip greens,
parsley, green onions, spinach, and lettuce.
Warfarin (Coumadin®) can cause birth defects or bleeding in an unborn
child. Women of childbearing age should use effective contraception while
receiving warfarin (Coumadin®) therapy. If a woman becomes pregnant
while taking warfarin (Coumadin®) , she should discuss the
potential risks and her options with her health care professional. Do not
change brands of warfarin (Coumadin®) without talking to your
doctor or health care professional. Also, always check the color of your
medicine when you get a new prescription. If you notice a change in the color of
your warfarin (Coumadin®) tablet, check with your pharmacist or
health care professional to make sure you received the correct medicine.
Alcohol can affect the way warfarin (Coumadin®) works. Ask your
doctor or health care professional how much, if any, alcohol you may consume.
Do not take any over-the-counter medicines without first talking to your doctor
or health care professional. Do not take any aspirin or aspirin-containing
products, ibuprofen (Motrin®, Advil®, or Nuprin®)
naprosyn (Aleve®), ketoprofen (Orudis-KT®) or other
medicines known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents without talking to your
doctor or health care professional first.
Be careful to avoid sports and activities that might cause injury while you are
using warfarin (Coumadin®) . Severe falls or injuries can cause
unseen bleeding. Be careful when using sharp tools or knives. Consider using an
electric razor. Take special care brushing or flossing your teeth. Report any
injuries, bruising, or red spots on the skin to your doctor or health care
professional.
If you have an illness that causes vomiting, diarrhea, or fever for more than a
few days, contact your doctor. Also check with your doctor if you are unable to
eat for several days. These problems can change the effect of warfarin (Coumadin®)
.
Even after you stop taking warfarin (Coumadin®) , it takes several
days before your body recovers its normal ability to clot blood. Ask your doctor
or health care professional how long you need to be cautious. If you are going
to have surgery or dental work, tell your doctor or health care professional
that you have been taking warfarin (Coumadin®) .
Where
can I keep my medicine (Coumadin®)?
Keep out of the reach of children in a container that small children cannot
open. Store at room temperature between 15 and 30 degrees C (59 and 86 degrees
F). Protect from light. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration
date.
