For Prosthetic Heart Valves, Mechanical Valves - Thrombosis Prophylaxis "I have a mechanical aortic valve and have been prescribed warfarin sodium to control clotting. I have used warfarin sodium for over 20 years but was given Jantoven recently as a substitute, but it caused my INR to be difficult to stabilize. Why is Jantoven different from warfarin sodium?"

For Prosthetic Heart Valves, Mechanical Valves - Thrombosis Prophylaxis "I have an artificial mitral heart valve since 2010, resulting in a lifetime of blood thinner therapy for me. The first year was a rollercoaster ride with INR/ProTime while taking generic warfarin/Coumadin. A switch to Jantoven stabilized my INR results dramatically. I have remained on Jantoven all this time. I am quite thankful for this medication. Only the past couple of years has my insurance been covering this medication, and I am so grateful! I soon will be retired and am not sure how Medicare will handle costs of the medication. Being on SS alone, the cost could possibly be prohibitive."

For Prevention of Thromboembolism in Atrial Fibrillation "I've been on Jantoven for a number of years-no problems really. I have my INRs regularly every month, usually between 2 and 3 (as it should be). I would recommend it."
