Dear doc,am taking acitrom for pulmonary hypertension, currently it is 3mg,yesterday my inr was found 1.41,to what extent should i increase my dose?

That is: NOT a question to ask on the internet. You have an MD, consult him/her. However, if u do home monitorring, look at you pattern and you might be abe to figure it own your own--but STILL, get in touch wi ur MD.
