Coumadin (warfarin) is a potent blood thinner that is used to treat different conditions that require blood thinning, such as DVT(blood clot in the leg), pulmonary embolus, atrial fibrillation, and mechanical heart valves. The major complication of coumadin is bleeding. When you are on coumadin, you will need to check a blood test- the PT/INR. Sandra Takami, PharmD, a doctor of pharmacology.
