Sorry, I'm not quite sure what your question is.

What is your therapeutic inr range?

What is your current inr ?

It took me at least ,6 months to get anywhere near my required range of 2.5

Are you in the Uk?

So, what is the inr you are aiming for?

Diet plays a big part in inr. I can explain more when I know what you are aiming for.

Also alcohol and drug interactions.

If they need you on a higher INR they can increase your dose a little. I got to my target INR in about a month but take much higher doses than you do. I take generic warfarin as I am in the U.K. But it's the INR that is the important thing not how much you take. I hope they told you to keep your intake of vitamin K foods fairly constant as this affects INR.

Not what you're looking for?
