Tea and warfarin: In general, most teas, including green tea and red bush tea, is completely safe with warfarin. Occasionally if a patient overindulges, there may e a mild "resistance" to the effects of warfarin as evidenced by a lowering of the INR, necessitating a slightly higher warfarin dose. In general, with any dietary changes, you should alert your health provider if you are on warfarin.

Probably, however...: I am not a fan of warfarin because it has more interactions than any drug; it seems like virtually every food & medicine renders it more or less active. Redbush tea is not known to interact with warfarin but it would not surprise me if it did to some degree. Try it but monitor your PT to make sure the dose does not need adjusting. I advise taking a low dose of Vit K. See http://tinyurl.com/n4vpk8b
