Blood Pressure Treatment Posted: 03-24-06 08:52am


I have been given a prescription for tritace 5mg. Daily (warfrin). I have read the leaflet with the medication and this says the normal dosage (commencement) is 1.25mgs daily. I have asked my gp why my dosage is 4 times that recommended by the manufacturer but he will not answer me. Neither will he tell what the probable consequences of this 400% increase in dosage are likely to be. Is this dosage of warfrin dangerous over a period of months? Am I right to refuse to take this medication.? I have never had a heart attack, stroke, diabetes.Liver complaint of kidney problems. This morning I have been putting new ridge tiles on my house roof, I do lots of heavy gardening, digging, moving flag-stones, house-painting, decorating, garden fencing etc. My normal/regular bp is 135/75 or thereabouts
