What is the INR range?

Published in Blood Coagulation 1 min read

The INR (International Normalized Ratio) range depends on whether or not a person is taking anticoagulants.

  • For individuals not on anticoagulants: The INR is typically around 1.0.

  • For individuals on anticoagulant therapy (e.g., warfarin): The therapeutic INR range is generally 2.0 to 3.0. This range helps to prevent blood clots while minimizing the risk of bleeding.

It is important to note that target INR ranges can vary based on individual conditions and the specific anticoagulant used. Always follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding INR monitoring and target ranges.
