A member asked:
How long does the effect of warfarin stay in your system once you get off of the medicine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2 to 7 days: Wafarin response is very variable. Typically, within 2 to 3 days there is a significant reductiion in the effect and within about 5 days anticoagulation effect has largely resolved. There are antidotes available and diet will have an impact.
