Warfarin And Excessive Skin Redness
UpdatedMy husband has been on warfarin sin june 2012 without major issues. He had stroke and a dvt that passed into his lung. Both occurred at the same time. He has totally recovered. But, ever since the middle of March 2014 he has been experiencing skin reddening. Its like he has been in the sun all day. Sometimes its splotchy sometime its just red. It does go We are wondering if it has to do with the warfarin. His inrs have been fine and the hematologist doesn't seem to think there is a problem and the dermatologist says he just has sensitive skin. The question is why would it suddenly start? Has anyone else experienced this or have any info. We are at wits end. Thanks for your time.

Is he on any other medications, such as cardiac medications or blood pressure drugs?
Some of them may cause flushing such as that which you've mentioned.
