Warfarin Reversal

INR-guided algorithm

INR > target, no bleed

  • INR 5–8: withhold 1–2 doses, restart at lower dose
  • INR >8: withhold + vitamin K 1–5 mg PO

Minor bleed

  • Vitamin K 1–3 mg slow IV
  • Re-check INR at 6–24 h

Major bleed

  • Stop warfarin
  • Vitamin K 5–10 mg slow IV
  • PCC (Octaplex/Beriplex) 25–50 U/kg by INR
  • FFP only if PCC unavailable
