test

• Interaction with Alcohol

  Chronic use of alcohol inhibits warfarin metabolism; avoid or limit use.

• Interaction with Medicine

  • Induction of enzymes: Barbiturates, carbamazepine, glutethimide, griseofulvin, nafcillin, phenytoin, rifampin.
  • Increased procoagulant factors: Estrogens, oral contraceptives, vitamin K (including nutritional supplements).
  • Decreased drug absorption: Aluminum hydroxide, cholestyramine*, colestipol*.
  • Other: Ethchlorvynol, griseofulvin, spironolactone**, sucralfate.
  *Cholestyramine and colestipol may increase the anticoagulant effect by binding vitamin K in the gut; yet, the decreased drug absorption appears to be of more concern. **Diuretic-induced hemoconcentration with subsequent concentration of clotting factors has been reported to decrease the effects of oral anticoagulants.
  • Increased bleeding tendency: (Use of these agents with oral anticoagulants may increase the chances of hemorrhage.)
  • Inhibit platelet aggregation: Cephalosporins, dipyridamole, indomethacin, oxyphenbutazone, penicillin (parenteral), phenylbutazone, salicylates, sulfinpyrazone.
  • Inhibit procoagulant factors: Antimetabolites, quinidine, quinine, salicylates.
  • Ulcerogenic drugs: Adrenal corticosteroids, indomethacin, oxyphenbutazone, phenylbutazone, potassium products, salicylates.
  • Enhanced anticoagulant effects:
    • Decrease Vitamin K: Oral antibiotics can increase or decrease INR. Check INR 3 days after patient begins antibiotics to see the INR value and adjust the warfarin dose accordingly.
    • Displace anticoagulant: Chloral hydrate, clofibrate, diazoxide, ethacrynic acid, miconazole, nalidixic acid, phenylbutazone, salicylates, sulfonamides, sulfonylureas, triclofos.
    • Inhibit Metabolism: Alcohol (acute ingestion)*, Allopurinol, amiodarone, chloramphenicol, chlorpropamide, cimetidine, co-trimoxazole, disulfiram, metronidazole, phenylbutazone, phenytoin, propoxyphene, sulfinpyrazone, sulfonamides, tolbutamide.
