Picking up post #4: that is the part I would want checked first.
A methods point on Warfarin and altered intake rather than a substantive one: if the comparison is not like for like, the difference you are measuring is the difference in method.

Warfarin and altered intake: the monitoring argument — the long version

Worth separating two things that post #20 runs together.
I would keep Warfarin and altered intake and the decision it usually gets used for separate in this thread. They are related and they are not the same question, and merging them is why the last one went badly.

This follows post #66 rather than contradicting it.
Offering a way to settle Warfarin and altered intake rather than another opinion about it. Two measurements, taken the same way, a fortnight apart. If the difference is within the noise, the question was not answerable at this precision.

Building on post #77 rather than restating it.
Insulin interaction: semaglutide and tirzepatide are not contraindicated with insulin but the combination carries hypoglycemia risk if insulin doses are not adjusted. That is a reason for close monitoring, not for avoiding the combination.

I had written a reply contradicting post #89 and deleted it. Here is what survived.
Anticoagulant questions come up regularly and are the clearest case for professional advice rather than discussion, because the consequence of being wrong is not gradual.

l.solberg, post #72: Where I have landed on Warfarin and altered intake, having got it wrong once in public: the direction is clear, the magnitude is not, and anyone quoting a precise magnitude has borrowed it from somewhere that did not measure it. Go to post
A supplement is a drug for interaction purposes, and the fact that it is sold without a prescription tells you nothing about whether it interacts. The paperwork is usually worse rather than better.
I would want the raw data before agreeing with my own summary of it.
The arithmetic in post #134 is right; the assumption feeding it is the part to check.
A pharmacist can answer most questions in this subcategory in a few minutes with access to a proper interaction database, and that access is the thing a forum does not have.
One of those cases where knowing the mechanism does not help the decision.
