Warfarin may prevent cancer

Warfarin use may lower the risk of cancer development, say researchers.
Warfarin is a medication used to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. A new study, however, suggests that the drug may also help to reduce the risk of cancer, particularly for people aged 50 and older.

Study co-author James B. Lorens, Ph.D., of the University of Bergen in Norway, and colleagues recently reported their findings in JAMA Internal Medicine.

Oh crap....another conspiracy to kill seasoned citizens.

Has anyone here seen one of the Wayfarin commercials??   The damned side-effects of the drug will kill you.

Yeah. I am taking it now. On the drive to work yesterday my nose started bleeding. Fortunately, I had a towel I sit on because my car seat is worn. I pulled it out, held it to my face, and continued on my merry way.
