Safety advice for Warf 3 Tablet

Warnings and precautions

Seek urgent care for black or tarry stools, blood in the vomit or urine, a severe headache, or bleeding that will not stop. Tell every doctor and dentist treating you that you are on a blood thinner, well before any procedure. Never stop this medicine on your own before surgery or dental work — stopping it carries its own risk, and the decision is your doctor's. Avoid contact sports and take care with razors and sharp tools. Your INR blood test decides the dose. Have it done as often as your doctor says, and never change the dose yourself on the basis of how you feel. Keep your intake of green leafy vegetables steady rather than avoiding them — it is a sudden change that upsets the INR, not the vegetables themselves. Tell your doctor before starting or stopping ANY medicine, including over-the-counter painkillers and herbal products.

Do not take Warf if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with active bleeding, a bleeding disorder, or a recent bleed into the brain.

Interactions with other medicines

Anti-inflammatory painkillers, including over-the-counter ones, sharply raise the bleeding risk. Combining two blood thinners multiplies the risk — never add one yourself. Tell your doctor about all herbal products; several affect clotting.

How to store Warf 3 Tablet

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.

Expert advice for Warf 3 Tablet

Carry a card or note saying which blood thinner you take. Take it at the same time every day; a missed dose leaves you less protected. Use paracetamol rather than an anti-inflammatory for ordinary aches, unless your doctor says otherwise. Carry your INR record and a note that you take warfarin. Take it at the same time each evening.
