Am I a good candidate for home testing?

You may well be. Any patient interested in improving the control of their INR test results and decreasing the risk associated with warfarin is a good candidate.

What else makes a good candidate?

  • Patients interested in performing their own INR test at home.
  • Patients looking to reduce the number of prescription or dosing changes.
  • Patients on more medications than just their Coumadin prescription
  • Patients with a supportive: spouse, family member, neighbor or caregiver .
