Hello,

I am not sure what Disprin cardio care is, but it sounds like it might be aspirin, in which case it would not be safe to replace your Warfarin with it.

Whatever Disprin is, it is unlikely to be as effective as Warfarin is for preventing blood clots.

Since blood clots can potentially be very dangerous, I would definitely not stop taking the Warfarin without discussing it with your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Aaron Branch, General & Family Physician
