Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Jantoven is another brand name drug for Coumadin. It is made by a different manufacturer and therefore slightly different "ingredients per se". Therefore you physician or pharmacist might be trying a slightly different Coumadin modality to see if you numbers respond better or more predictable.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
