A member asked:
I am getting off of coumadin (warfarin) for leech therapy. should i expect withdrawals?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Leech therapy: There is a paucity of controlled scientific evidence of this form of therapy. If you have thromboembolic disease, i would be most careful about this decision.
