Anticoagulation Pharmacist Services
Anticoagulation Pharmacists are trained to help people manage warfarin (Coumadin) and at times other anticoagulation medications if needed, such as enoxaparin (Lovenox). They will work closely with you, your doctor and your healthcare team to measure the level of your blood-thinning medication and adjust your medication if needed. After visits for at least 3 months, they will help to determine if a home meter might be appropriate for you to measure the level of your blood-thinning medication. They will also be able to help coordinate plans when needing to stop warfarin for a procedure. If you would like to meet with a pharmacist, be sure to ask your doctor to make a referral.

During an appointment, the pharmacist will:
- Have you watch a short video for education on warfarin, if you haven’t done so prior.
