Warfarin and Elevated liver enzymes.

Has anyone ever had elevated liver enzymes attributed to long-term warfarin use? irina

Sorry Irina never head of that attributed only to warfarin. Mine have been checked every year as part of my annual review and had one or two retest due to anomalies but nothing constant shows up.

Thanks Bob. Mainly on an investigative journey here. My last year on Warfarin I had mildly elevated BUN, creatinine, and bilirubin. My latest labs show they are beginning to trend back down. No changes in food, meds, etc. The only change has been d/c of warfarin on March 9th as part of the post Watchman Procedure protocol. Currently on clopidogrel 75mg which will be dc'd in July. There are several other minor sx that seem resolved since stopping the warfarin. Just curious; always trying to do my own scientific research! (LOL). Could be a sort of mental placebo. I hated the warfarin (and anticoagulants in general tho I know they are necessary at times). Will be happy to see the last of them. Happy they are not causing you problems. Take care and have a great weekend. irina
