A member asked:

What do i do? i am on life long warfarin and can not come off it. can i just switch to fragmin (dalteparin)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Fragmin (dalteparin): Fragmin (dalteparin) is given by injection. I doubt you'd want to take it for the rest of your life. It's also very expensive. (1 vial is $730).
