Coumadin (warfarin) "Was on Coumadin for 4 years. Walked away due to headaches daily. Got another clot. It may have been worth the couple months of no headaches, no fussy head, no feeling stupid, loosing my sight (which is old age, but still the timing), but the anxiety of knowing my body will clot along with a new clot put me back on Coumadin. Finally got the news about Xarelto. Life changing to say the least. No way to reverse dose, I take the risk for a better life. Besides the half life is only 5 to 9 hours for under 45 yr old and 11 to 13 hours for older. Take it with dinner and you are sleeping that whole time."

"I have been using warfarin now for 12 years for DVTs. After the first year, I was taken off warfarin and put on Xarelto for 4 months and had gotten my second new blood clot in my other leg, and a Baker's cyst under my left knee. So, I was then put back on warfarin and have been on it ever since. I can't say that I've had headaches from using warfarin per se. Other than brain fog, I would say probably sums it up the most. But I'm glad I'm taking it and will be for the rest of my life."

Coumadin (warfarin) "I really do not like taking medications so I probably don't monitor it like I should. So far I have had no problems develop but it works effectively and side effects are minimal. Some cuts barely bleed while a small scratch may take awhile to stop depending on where the cut or scratch occurs. I have found that Coumadin regulates better than other warfarin but costs considerably more. "
