What is the antidote for warfarin?

Why does warfarin cause purple toe syndrome?

Coumadin - My INR was way out of range today when I did my weekly test - haven't done anything?

... different this week other than switching to working overnight. What could cause the reading to be out of range? Does it matter if you have the blood tested after you wake up or should you be awake for awhile first?

Is there any source for a lactose-free gluten-free warfarin or coumadin?

I am celiac and lactose-intolerant. I am having heart valve replacement soon and am recommended to have a mechanical replacement. This means I need to be on Warfarin or Coumadin for life. Are there any sources of Warfarin that are certified gluten and coumadin free?
