The INR is a test of blood clotting which is primarily used to monitor Warfarin therapy, where the aim is to maintain elevated INR in certain range of 2 to 3 . Initially it is done frequently and later fortnightly when it is stablised. For this one has to stop eating all the foods/vegetables which contain Vitamin K, like Spinch, Sarson ka saag, cabage, cauliflower--all leafy & green vegetables. I did not maitain my INR number to the required range as a result I got a stroke on 15 Dec 2012. I was lucky to have survived that stroke .I now do not eat any green & leafy vegetables(saroson ka saag,spinch cabage ect ect) and maintain INR at 2.5 after regularly taking Acitrom. For maintaining INR in required range one has to take a medicine Acitrom doses and carry out blood test fortnightly. more
