Precautions To Be Taken Before Obitrol 60 Cap
The blood thinning effect of warfarin Coumadin depends on the amount of vitamin K in the body and vitamin K is one of the vitamins that binds to fat Patients receiving warfarin who begin orlistat should have their blood clotting monitored closely because the orlistat may cause levels of vitamin K to decline This will increase the effects of warfarin and lead to abnormal bleeding from the warfarin There is no evidence that a deficiency of vitamin K occurs in patients who are taking orlistat Orlistat may reduce the absorption and blood levels of cyclosporine Sandimmune when both drugs are administered together Therefore cyclosporine should be administered two hours before or after orlistat and more frequent monitoring of cyclosporine levels may be needed
