Dear Kanno Lendi,

INR data can be elevated in 2 cases
1. if you take a specific medication, such as Coumadin (warfarin). usually this medication is prescribed for arrhythmias. In this case you should discontinue the medication and repeat INR in a day.

2. If there is a liver disease. Sometimes in heart patients liver is also involved. So if you don't take any medication, which can cause elevated INR, I would advise you to see your doctor to check liver function

Hope I could help you

Wishing you a good health
