Low Iron Content. Prescribed Folic T, Carbidopa, Levodopa, Warfarin. Can I Take In Case Of Internal Bleeding?
I have been prescribed Folbic t take along with Carbidopa/ Levodopa. On a commercial on tv tonite , I saw where you should not take Warfarin or Eliquis if you have signs of internal bleeding ie red bruising. I have been told I have low iron. Does Folbic pose a problem as I have bruising & I don't know if it is a drug like Warfarin & Eliquis. Thak you.

Warfarin and other oral anti-coagulants are quite safe if the blood parameters are monitored and kept within the required limit, so trust your docotr who has put you on it. Don't be carried away by commercials all the time. Coming to Folic acid, its a vitamin required for hematopoesis(Blood formation). It has nothing to do with blood coagulation.
