Wanted to know if blood thinners help you lose weight?

Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Blood thinners: do not make a person loose weight. They are also dangerous unless your doctor is guiding you. Please don't adjust the dose in any way w/out your doctor's advice. Ask your doc about a low carb higher protein food plan. Peace and good health.
