What are the Risks of Using Warfarin in Cancer Patients?
While Warfarin is effective in reducing the risk of blood clots, it also carries the risk of bleeding complications, which can be particularly concerning in cancer patients who may already be at a higher risk for bleeding due to the cancer itself or its treatments. Regular monitoring of the International Normalized Ratio (INR) is essential to ensure Warfarin levels remain within the therapeutic range to minimize these risks.
