FOOD AND WARFARIN AND OTHER ORAL ANTICOAGULANTS - FOODS, GENERAL

A number of foodstuffs have been implicated in interactions with warfarin. Some of these were not thought to be related to their vitamin K content. These include:
  • antagonism of the effects of warfarin by ice cream, avocado, soybean protein, and
    soybean oil and other intravenous lipids
  • an increase in prothrombin time with the use of aspartame or following the
    consumption of mango fruit
    These reactions seem unlikely to be of general importance, although bear them in mind in case of an unexpected response to oral anticoagulants.
