    Question Warfarin & Glucosamine ?

    Can anyone explain why you shouldn't take glucosamine supplements if you are taking warfain? I have asked many times to various pharmacists but each ones gives me a different answer?

    Have you consulted Stockley's ? Theoretical risk of increased INR when given together.
