My husband has been on warfarin for quite some time and his recent INR reading wa 5.0. He was told to skip a dosage and go have it read the next day and it was 5.2. He was told to get to the ER and have a checkup. We are going on vacation out of the country and I am concerned as to what could happen.
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your INR value is very high. It suggests very high prothrombin time. You have risk of bleeding.  You should stop warfarin and consult your physician urgently. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
