Hi, Thanks for using Chat Doctor, After going through your history, you have undergone mitral valve replacement, Anticoagulation is too maintained and monitored with Prothrombin Time (INR) it is usually 2.5 times your INR is 2.1 please visit your Physician to adjust the dose of Citron. The prosthetic valve if it is metallic one this monitoring is required life long. Please follow all instructions of your Physician. Hope this Helps, Take care Good Luck. Chat Doctor. D.
