Why Are My Coumadin Levels Dropping?
Hi, My husband passed away four months ago, and my coumadin levels have dropped below therapeutic range. I am not eating more spinach or vitamin K foods than I did before, however I have lost some weight and do not eat as much. What else could affect the level this way?

you need to see your treating doctor for reduced coumadin level. Doctor will adjust dose of your medicine. Its level can also be affected with other drugs you are taking.
