How effective is warfarin (coumadin) for managing atrial fibrillation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Warfarin: Warfarin doesn't manage atrial fibrillation. It is an anticoagulant we give to afib patients to decrease the possibility of their having a clot form and cause an embolus to the brain or other part of the body.
