May be: The ingredients of Vicks products are different in each country, you want to ask a pharmacist about possible interaction between Vicks acta plus and warfarin, most probably there is no interaction, but it won&#x27;t harm to check with the pharmacist.  Good that you asked, always exercise caution with multiple medications, wish you well and good luck

Question 4

why must i take my warfarin at an exact, specific time?

Accepted Answer

Easier to control: It doesn't have to be at an exact time, but, warfarin is easier to regulate if taken at a consistent time. I prefer at dinner time or thereabouts, so that when dosage changes are recommended, you won't have already taken that day's dose.

Question 5

where can i purchase 5-mthf, and how much should i take, i'm also on warfarin?

Accepted Answer

Go see your doctor: Because you're taking warfarin, you need to tell your doctor everything you're taking, whether prescription or over-the-counter as many drugs can interact w/warfarin & increase your risk for bleeding or clotting. You didn't mention why you want l-5-methyltetrahydrofolate but be careful of internet brands. Stick w/medical food quality brands.

Question 6

how long does it generally take for warfarin to leave the body once you stop taking it?

Accepted Answer

Warfarin: The duration of time it takes for warfarin to be eliminated from your body depends on a few factors. It depends on the dose that you were previously taking, it depends on the pro time level at the time that you stop warfarin, and it depends on how much vitamin k is in your diet. That being said, usually we estimate 5 to 7 days for reduction of the effect of warfarin down to a level of baseline.
