COUMADIN  (WARFARIN SODIUM):  This medication is used to treat blood clots (such as in deep vein thrombosis-DVT or pulmonary embolus-PE) and/or to prevent new clots from forming in your body. Preventing harmful blood clots helps to reduce the risk of a stroke or heart attack. Conditions that increase your risk of developing blood clots include a certain type of irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation), heart valve replacement, recent heart attack, and certain surgeries (such as hip/knee replacement). Warfarin is commonly called a "blood thinner," but the more correct term is "anticoagulant." It helps to keep blood flowing smoothly in your body by decreasing the amount of certain substances (clotting proteins) in your blood.    (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 5  Blood Clot Pulmonary Embolism From what I can tell I am not suffering any side effects. But switched from Xarelto. And Xarelto has many horrible side effects. I gained 25 pounds in 3 months on Xarelto and was having many bad side effects. So far Coumadin has been amazing. And i'm losing the weight I gained. I think it was all water retention. I feel so much better on Coumadin. M 49 10 days

 5  DVT and Factor V Thrombophilia Bruising more apparent when bumping into things. Works much better for me than Xarelto which caused anxiety, chest pain, body aches, and mild shortness of breath. Highly advise taking Coumadin over Xarelto. F 48 30 days

 4  APS I have neuropathy (unknown cause) and Coumadin definitely makes it worse. So far I have been on 2mg/day which seems to be the right dose to keep my INR around 2.2. I tried Eliquis and several other blood thinners but too many side effects and having my blood checked every week or so for the Coumadin is not a problem for me. If I could somehow lessen the pain of neuropathy that would be great. F 80 4 months
2mg 1X day
