What Are The Extra Ingredients In Warfarin Versus Coumadin?

I like to know the extra ingredients in warfarin versus coumadin. I know the active ingredients are the same, I am looking for fillers. I have much hair loss with warfarin. When I took coumadin some years back I did not have that problem. Is this a side effect of warfarin perhaps due to fillers.

hi, pharmacologically there are differences between the two,but there is no ingredient difference in them. side effect profile may slightly vary between the two and they are not fixed.
yes, Warfarin is known to prduce hair loss but so is coumadin. As coumadin suited you, you may try it.
all the best.
