Solid

Hey Josh, have you considered adding suggested dosing? There’s an old warfarin app (warfarin htk) for Android that would just 5mg MWF, 7.5mg TTh. Was really helpful for dosing quickly. Thanks!

Nope.

I guess I should have looked into it a bit more before getting app. All very easily found information. INR range for Mechanical Mitral Valve is incorrect. It changed from 2.5-3.5 to 3.0-3.5 in early 2014, or before. Working off the incorrect range, when looking at adjusting the dosage, it suggests a 5% - 10% dosage increase if my INR is as low as 1.5! That makes no sense.
