Can I Do Weight Lifting At Gym While Taking Warfarin Tablets?

Hello :-) I have just been diagnosed with DVT in my left calf muscle. I have been on Fragmin injections for t past 6 days, I am now on Warfarin tablets, but I have been going to the gym for over two years and don t want to lose the muscles that I strived so hard to gain. Can I still do weight lifting at the gym while on Warfarin tablets?

Hello,

Thanks for asking a question at Healthcare magic.

You can sure go to gym.

But, do not over extend yourselves.

Limited and Regular Physical activity is fine.

Bets Regards
