Is there a multivitamin without Vitamin K for those on Coumadin (warfarin)?
I subscribe to and enjoy your newsletter. I use your advice basically to help my 82 year old mother who is on Coumadin. I am wondering whether you are aware of any multivitamins that have no or low concentration of Vitamin K. My mother wants to take a multivitamin but all of the ones she has found to date contain pretty hefty amounts of vitamin K.
Dr. Gourmet Says...
There are multivitamins available without Vitamin K. I do not endorse any specific ones, so I do not list them on the website.
Simply ask your local pharmacist to order a multivitamin without Vitamin K if he or she doesn't have any in stock.
