My mom takes coumadin, (warfarin) . is it safe for her to take centrum cardio vitamins (with plant phytols) to help lower her cholesterol?

Check vitamin k: Check for vitamin k in vitamins that can interfere with Coumadin (warfarin) effect.

Yes: I truly believe that high antioxidant levels in the blood is the key to fight disease states. Although vitamin k can counteract the affects of coumadin, (warfarin) i would much rather have my patients eat whole foods like fruits and veggies and take a slightly higher dose of Coumadin (warfarin) than deny themselves these potent antioxidants. A diet rich in especially berries can raise HDL (good cholesterol).

Yes: Just have her inr rechecked after being on any new supplements to make sure it does not interact with her coumadin (warfarin).
