I'm on Warfarin but have never had those symptoms. What dose are you taking?

Hi jean, Just 3mg daily......doesn't seem to be a known side effect.....so thought I would check with others .....see my GP on Wednesday so may get some answers . thank you for replying

Been on it 6 years and never had that problem. Have you checked the patient information leaflet to see whether it is a known side effect?

I'd have thought if you've been on it for 5 years and the sore tongue and dry mouth are only recent, then the cause would be something else, e.g. the hot weather or eating something too hot?
