how much does ibuprofen affect INR values?
Question:
Answers:
Ibuprofen doesn't mess with INR (Coumadin levels); it messes with the platelets. Put the two together you can increase bleeding. You should also stay away from products like Aleve as it has a similar effect as Ibuprofen.
If you experiencing pain...please take a tylenol based product but do not go over the 4000mg daily dose.
Other Answers:
it doesn't
It would normally affect your kidneys and the lining of your stomach, not your liver (which is where the action is with INR and warfarin and vitamin K dependent clotting factors)
Truly only a set sample of your PT/INR times can tell, it may differ from person to person.
My PT/INR times are greatly affected by antibiotics but not by VitK edibles. Simply chemical compound reactions.
And Ibuprofen has been reccommended to me for pain. But ya know the caffeine in a soda works just as well for a headache.
It doesn't. Ibuprofen can increase bleeding in people by acting on platelets. Warfarin is an oral anticoagulant that works on clotting factors (chemicals in the blood). INR is used to monitor warfaring therapy.
