Warfarin dosing

Warfarin is a medication that helps prevent blood clots by thinning the blood. Its dose varies for each person based on factors like age, diet, health conditions, and other medications. Typically, a healthcare provider starts with a small dose and adjusts it over time by regularly checking blood tests called INR to ensure the blood isn't too thick or too thin. The goal is to keep the blood within a safe, effective range, reducing the risk of clots or bleeding. Close monitoring and communication with your healthcare provider are essential for safe and effective warfarin therapy.
