Dosage Modifications
Hepatic impairment: May potentiate warfarin response because of decreased metabolism and impaired synthesis of clotting factors
Dosing Considerations
Indication determines intensity and duration of therapy
Individualized doses and monitoring of PT/INR are necessary
Monitoring frequency should be daily or once every few days until stabilized; once stable, q4-6 weeks or longer may be appropriate (eg, 12 weeks)
Not all factors causing warfarin dose variability are known, but they include age, race, sex, body weight, concomitant medications, and comorbidities, in addition to genetic factors
Lower starting doses (ie, 2-5 mg/day × 2 days) recommended with the elderly, hepatic impairment, poor nutrition, CHF, high bleeding risk, debilitated patients, heart valve replacement, concomitant medications known to increase warfarin effect, or individuals suspected of having genomic variants
Perioperative management recommendations: Hold warfarin therapy approximately 5 days before surgery; resume warfarin 12-24 hr after surgery; bridge anticoagulation during interruption in patients at high thromboembolism risk
Minor procedures and dental procedures: See ACCP guidelines for specific recommendations
Warfarin has no direct effect on an established thrombus, nor does it reverse ischemic tissue damage
Systemic atheroemboli and cholesterol microemboli; some cases have progressed to necrosis or death; discontinue therapy if such emboli occur
Pregnant women with mechanical heart valves: Therapy may cause fetal harm; however, benefits may outweigh the risks

Thrombosis
Prevention/treatment: If baseline INR is 1.0-1.3, administer loading dose of 0.1-0.2 mg/kg PO qDay × 1 day; check INR on days 2-4 and adjust daily dose to maintain INR between 2.0 and 3.0 (unless valve replacement indicates a higher range)
Use 0.1 mg/kg to initiate therapy with liver impairment or in patients who have had a Fontan procedure
Typical maintenance dose: 0.09-0.33 mg/kg/day, with infants <12 months old often requiring doses at high end of range
Dosing considerations
- Consistent anticoagulation in children is difficult and requires close supervision and frequent dose adjustments
- Refer to ACCP recommendations or institutional protocol for treatment duration dependent on indication
- Infants and children receiving vitamin K-supplemented nutrition (including infant formulas): May be resistant to warfarin therapy
- Infants with human-milk diet: May be sensitive to warfarin therapy
Dosing Considerations
Hepatic impairment
- Hepatic impairment may potentiate warfarin response because of decreased metabolism and impaired synthesis of clotting factors
- Load: 0.1 mg/kg PO qDay × 2 days
- Typical maintenance dose: 0.1 mg/kg PO qDay; adjust dose to achieve desired INR
- Common maintenance dose range: 0.05-0.34 mg/kg PO qDay
Anticoagulation
Lower doses required to produce therapeutic level of anticoagulation
Initial: ≤5 mg PO qDay
Maintenance: 2-5 mg PO qDay
Dosing Considerations
Elderly show greater than expected PT/INR response to anticoagulant effects of warfarin, possibly because of decreased hepatic function resulting in decreased warfarin metabolism and impaired synthesis of clotting factors
Caution should be used in elderly individuals who have increased risk of hemorrhage

Warnings
Black Box Warnings
Warfarin sodium can cause major or fatal bleeding; bleeding is more likely to occur during the starting period and with a higher dose (resulting in a higher INR)
Risk factors for bleeding include high intensity of anticoagulation (INR greater than 4), age 65 years or older, highly variable INRs, history of gastrointestinal bleeding, hypertension, cerebrovascular disease, serious heart disease, anemia, malignancy, trauma, renal insufficiency, concomitant drugs, and long duration of warfarin therapy
Regular monitoring of INR should be performed on all treated patients; those at high risk of bleeding may benefit from more frequent INR monitoring, careful dose adjustment to desired INR, and a shorter duration of therapy
Patients should be instructed about prevention measures to minimize the risk of bleeding and to immediately report any signs or symptoms of bleeding to their physician
Contraindications
Pregnancy, except in women with mechanical heart valves
Hemorrhagic tendencies or blood dyscrasias
Recent or contemplated CNS or eye surgery or traumatic surgery resulting in large open surfaces
Bleeding tendencies associated with CNS hemorrhage, cerebral aneurysms, dissecting aorta, pericarditis and pericardial effusions, bacterial endocarditis, and active ulceration or overt bleeding of the GI, GU, or respiratory tract
Threatened abortion, eclampsia, and preeclampsia
Unsupervised patients with conditions associated with potential high level of noncompliance (eg, dementia, alcoholism, psychosis)
Spinal puncture and other diagnostic or therapeutic procedures with potential for uncontrollable bleeding
Major regional or lumbar block anesthesia
Known hypersensitivity
Malignant hypertension
Cautions
Lower doses may be warranted in the elderly, debilitated patients, malnutrition, CHF, or liver disease
Elicits no direct effect on an established thrombus, nor does it reverse ischemic tissue damage
INR >4.0 appears to provide no additional therapeutic benefit in most patients and is associated with a higher risk of bleeding
Skin necrosis reported with use; caution in patients at risk for hemorrhage, necrosis, or gangrene
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, DVT (may defer warfarin until thrombin generation is controlled and thrombocytopenia has resolved)
Genetic tests may be warranted to determine best dose for individual patients; variations in CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genes may modify response
Advise patients receiving warfarin to carry a notice stating that they are undergoing anticoagulant therapy, to alert medical/emergency personnel
Use caution in patients with acute infection or active TB or conditions that may alter normal GI flora; antibiotics and fever may change response to warfarin
May release atheromatous plaque emboli; may experience symptoms depending on site of embolization common organs like pancreas, liver, kidneys, and spleen, which may lead to necrosis or death
Use caution in patients with prolonged vitamin K insufficiencies
Thyroid disease may increase warfarin responsiveness
May impair synthesis of coagulation factors in patients with reduced liver function, regardless of etiology, which in turn may lead to increased warfarin sensitivity
Use caution in lactation
Calciphylaxis or calcium uremic arteriolopathy has been reported in patients with and without end-stage renal disease; discontinue warfarin and treat calciphylaxis as appropriate; consider alternative anticoagulant therapy
Maintain consistent intake of vitamin K-containing foods; high vitamin K consumption may decrease warfarin effect
In patients with altered glomerular integrity or with history of kidney disease, acute kidney injury may occur with therapy, possibly in relation to episodes of excessive anticoagulation and hematuria; more frequent monitoring of anticoagulation is advised in patients with compromised renal function
Hepatic impairment may impair synthesis of clotting factors and decrease metabolism of warfarin; conduct more frequent monitoring for bleeding
Contraindicated in any unsupervised patient with senility; conduct more frequent monitoring for bleeding in elderly patients receiving therapy in any situation
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
Adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications; estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for indicated population is unknown
Exposure during pregnancy causes a recognized pattern of major congenital malformations (warfarin embryopathy and fetotoxicity), fatal fetal hemorrhage, and an increased risk of spontaneous abortion and fetal mortality
Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating therapy
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment, and for at least 1 month after final dose of warfarin
Lactation
Not excreted in breast milk as reported in limited published study (AAP Committee states compatible with nursing); because of potential for serious adverse reactions, including bleeding in breastfed infant, consider developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with mother’s clinical need for therapy; monitor breastfeeding infants for bruising or bleeding
Pregnancy Categories
A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.
B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk. C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done. D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk. X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist. NA: Information not available.Pharmacology
Mechanism of Action
Interferes with hepatic synthesis of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors II, VII, IX, and X, as well as proteins C and S; S-warfarin is 4 times more potent than R-warfarin
Warfarin depletes functional vitamin K reserves, which in turn reduces synthesis of active clotting factors, by competitively inhibiting subunit 1 of the multi-unit vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKOR1)
Absorption
Onset: 36-48 hr
Duration: 2-5 days
Peak plasma time: 1.5-3 days
Distribution
Protein bound: 99% (albumin)
Vd: 0.14 L/kg
Metabolism
R-warfarin: Hepatic P450 enzymes CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP3A4
S-warfarin: CYP2C9
Elimination
Half-life: 20-60 hr (patient specific)
Pharmacogenomics
Metabolized primarily via oxidation in the liver by CYP2C9; exerts its anticoagulant effect by inhibiting the protein VKORC1
Dose influenced by genetic factors (CYP2C9, VKORC1 genotypes)
Carriers of CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 require ~19-33% dose reduction, respectively, per allele compared with persons who carry the *1 allele
Carriers of the VKORC1 A allele require ~28% dose reduction per allele in their genotype compared with persons who carry none

WARFARIN - ORAL
(WARF-uh-rin)
COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Coumadin, Jantoven
WARNING: Warfarin can cause very serious (possibly fatal) bleeding. This is more likely to occur when you first start taking this medication or if you take too much warfarin.To decrease your risk for bleeding, your doctor or other health care provider will monitor you closely and check your lab results (INR test) to make sure you are not taking too much warfarin. Keep all medical and lab appointments. Tell your doctor right away if you notice any signs of serious bleeding. See also Side Effects section.
USES: 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.
HOW TO USE: Read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start taking warfarin and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor or other health care professional, usually once a day. It is very important to take it exactly as directed. Do not increase the dose, take it more often, or stop using it unless directed by your doctor.The dosage is based on your medical condition, lab tests (such as INR), and response to treatment. Your doctor or other health care provider will monitor you closely while you are taking this medication to determine the right dose for you.Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day.It is important to eat a balanced, consistent diet while taking warfarin. Some foods can affect how warfarin works in your body and may affect your treatment and dose. Avoid sudden large increases or decreases in your intake of foods high in vitamin K (such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, brussels sprouts, kale, spinach, and other green leafy vegetables, liver, green tea, certain vitamin supplements). If you are trying to lose weight, check with your doctor before you try to go on a diet.Since this drug can be absorbed through the skin and lungs and may harm an unborn baby, women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant should not handle this medication or breathe the dust from the tablets.
SIDE EFFECTS: Nausea, loss of appetite, or stomach/abdominal pain may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.This medication can cause serious bleeding if it affects your blood clotting proteins too much (shown by unusually high INR lab results). Even if your doctor stops your medication, this risk of bleeding can continue for up to a week. Tell your doctor right away if you have any signs of serious bleeding, including: nosebleeds that happen often or don't stop, unusual pain/swelling/discomfort, unusual/easy bruising, prolonged bleeding from cuts or gums, unusually heavy/prolonged menstrual flow, pink/dark urine, coughing up blood, vomit that is bloody or looks like coffee grounds, severe headache, dizziness/fainting, unusual tiredness/weakness, bloody/black/tarry stools, chest pain, shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing.Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: nausea/vomiting that doesn't stop, severe stomach/abdominal pain, yellowing eyes/skin.This drug rarely has caused very serious (possibly fatal) problems if its effects lead to small blood clots (usually at the beginning of treatment). This can lead to severe skin/tissue damage that may require surgery or amputation if left untreated. Patients with certain blood conditions (protein C or S deficiency) may be at greater risk. Get medical help right away if any of these rare but serious side effects occur: painful/red/purplish patches on the skin (such as on the toe, breast, abdomen), signs of kidney problems (such as change in the amount of urine), vision changes, confusion, trouble speaking, weakness on one side of the body.A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.In the US -Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch.In Canada - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to Health Canada at 1-866-234-2345.
PRECAUTIONS: Before taking warfarin, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: blood disorders (such as anemia, hemophilia), bleeding problems (such as bleeding of the stomach/intestines, bleeding in the brain), blood vessel disorders (such as aneurysms), recent major injury/surgery, kidney disease, liver disease, alcohol use, mental/mood disorders (including memory problems), frequent falls/injuries.It is important that all your doctors and dentists know that you take warfarin. Before having surgery or any medical/dental procedures, tell your doctor or dentist that you are taking this medication and about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products).Avoid getting injections into the muscles. If you must have an injection into a muscle (for example, a flu shot), it should be given in the arm. This way, it will be easier to check for bleeding and/or apply pressure bandages.This medication may cause stomach bleeding. Daily use of alcohol while using this medicine will increase your risk for stomach bleeding and may also affect how this medication works. Limit alcoholic beverages. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about how much alcohol you may safely drink.If you have not been eating well, if you have an illness or infection that causes fever, vomiting, or diarrhea for more than 2 days, or if you start using any antibiotic medications, contact your doctor or pharmacist right away because these conditions can affect how warfarin works.This medication can cause heavy bleeding.
