Atorvastatin does not alter the anticoagulant activity of warfarin.

R Stern1, R Abel, G L Gibson, J Besserer.   

Abstract

Twelve patients chronically maintained on warfarin were administered 80 mg atorvastatin for 2 weeks. Mean prothrombin times decreased slightly, but only for the first few days of the two-week treatment period. Thus atorvastatin had no consistent effect on the anticoagulant activity of warfarin and adjustment in warfarin dosing should not be necessary.
