Hello,
thanks for using health care magic.
Warfarin and vitamin k act in opposite directions. While vit K helps in the synthesis of coagulation factors known as vit K dependent factors, Warfarin inhibits the recycling of vit K thus reducing the amount of active vit K present for the synthesis of coagulation factors. The end result of this action is reduced risk of formation of thrombus.
The intake of warfarin requires constant clinical follow up and laboratory follow up as well. What you should do is go back to your doctor for checkup because only him might know your history very well.
Best regards and hope this helps you.

Hello!

Thanks for being with us.

Warfarin is a vitamin K antagonist.There are alternatives for Warfarin like ACITROM(Nicoumalone) but it can not be replaced with any vitamin.

Warfarin is an anticoagulant that helps to prevent the blood from clotting means it makes the blood more thin where as Vitamin K has opposite action to that of warfarin.There are no vitamins which make blood thin or prevent it from clotting hence can not be replace vitamin for warfarin.

Consult with your doctor for the reason why warfarin was started for you.Is it required for long term?

For patients with heart attack warfarin is usually started if there is any clot in your heart,otherwise aspirin and clopidogrel will be sufficient.

So get evaluated with the Cardiologist for further management and decision regarding further continuation of warfarin.
Hope this could help you out.

Wish you good health.
