Zinc and INR

[Cclegg]

Hi all, would like to take a zinc supplement as have continuous colds at the moment! Could Zinc affect my INR?

doesn't mine.

I suggest you treat supplements like pills and do full research and consider alternative action first. I bought some zinc thinking it would help but did some more research and stopped taking it....sorry can't remember what the issues with it were.

I allways check (and check again!!) by googling the name of suppllement separately with each medication which I am using. Except of consulting MD.
