Warf 1 mg Tablet

Warf 1 mg Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains 1 mg of warfarin in each tablet. It belongs to the anti-coagulant (blood thinner) class and is used to help prevent and treat harmful blood clots. Warf 1 mg Tablet may be prescribed for conditions such as atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or after certain heart valve procedures. Because warfarin can affect bleeding risk, treatment with Warf 1 mg Tablet is closely monitored by a doctor.

How it works: Warf 1 mg Tablet works by lowering the body’s ability to form certain blood-clotting factors that depend on vitamin K. By reducing clotting activity, this tablet helps keep existing clots from getting bigger and helps prevent new clots from forming.

Warf 1 mg Tablet is a low-strength warfarin tablet, which gives prescribers more flexibility when making small dose changes. It is often suited for patients who need careful dose adjustment, because warfarin dosing is individualized and one tablet strength may not be enough on its own for every schedule. Compared with the 2 mg and 3 mg strengths, the 1 mg tablet can help a doctor fine-tune the daily dose more precisely.

• Prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation
• Treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
• Treatment and prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE)
• Prevention of clots after some heart valve procedures
• Other doctor-directed clot prevention needs

• Swallow Warf 1 mg Tablet whole with a glass of water.
• Take it exactly at the same time each day if your prescriber tells you to take it daily.
• Do not change your dose on your own, even if the tablet is a low 1 mg strength.
• Take it consistently with respect to food; large changes in vitamin K foods can change how it works.
• Keep all INR or blood test appointments so your dose can be adjusted safely.
• If you miss a dose, follow your prescriber’s instructions rather than doubling up.

Each Warf 1 mg Tablet provides 1 mg of warfarin per tablet. The dose is not fixed, and the doctor may prescribe it once daily or adjust the number of tablets and timing based on your INR and medical condition. There is no universal maximum daily dose for this tablet strength; the right total daily dose is decided by the prescriber for each patient.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
