Eczema is a well-described side-effect of warfarin, and one study of more than 50,000 patients showed that it was more than twice as common in women than men.

Have you tried aloe Vera gel/cream? My friend suggested it. It's great! My GP prescribed me cetraben and hydracortisone it did nothing, 2 days using the aloe gel the itching has calmed down and redness gone.
