Can you get a tattoo if you are taking Coumadin pills?

Question:

Answers:
I highly doubt it. You would probably bleed profusely. Check with your doctor, only. Don't rely on the tattoo artist.

Other Answers:
No. Coumadin is a blood thinner, so your tattoo would bleed excessively.

nooooooo. blood thinners are very BAD combination with tattoos and piercings. talk to your doctor and see what your other options are.

well i know lots of ppl who get tattoos when they are inebriated so, i dunno ask your tattooist?
