A member asked:

Can a high inr cause symptoms of dementia or alzheimers?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Inr: A high inr in of itself doesn't cause dementia or Alzheimer's disease. Whether it's due to taking anticoagulant like warfarin or because of liver disease, an elevated inr increases the tendency for bleeding,however.
