Warfarin and altered intake: the monitoring argument

Practice › Interactions hypoglycaemia needs a source insulin

Solved

Solved by e.ferreira in post #2

Anticoagulants: no direct interaction with the compounds in this class. Weight loss and body composition changes might affect the clearance or effect of warfarin if you are on it; monitoring INR more frequently during weight loss is reasonable. The right answer here may simply be that it has not been measured.

Warfarin and altered intake: the monitoring argument — setting out what I have, and where I think it stops being reliable.

Proposing that warfarin and altered intake deserves a maintained page rather than a recurring topic, and drafting the skeleton here so that the argument about scope happens before the writing rather than after.

What I think belongs on it, what does not, and the three claims that would need a citation each.

Gastrointestinal symptoms from one compound can mask or mimic an interaction with another. Introducing two changes at once makes attribution impossible, which is an argument for spacing them.
