Abstract [en]

Background: It is not known whether initiation of antidiabetic treatment affects the effect of vitamin K antagonists (VKAs). It was previously shown that metformin affects the effect of one VKA, phenprocoumon. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine if initiation of glucose-lowering treatment affects the international normalized ratio (INR) and dose requirements of the anticoagulant VKAs warfarin and phenprocoumon. Patients/methods: We performed a self-controlled retrospective register-based study. A total of 118 patients commencing glucose-lowering treatment while being treated with warfarin or phenprocoumon were included in the study. We compared INR, dose/INR and proportion of patients with at least one sub-therapeutic INR measurement before and after initiation of glucose-lowering treatment. Results: Initiation of glucose-lowering treatment caused mean INR to decrease from 2.5 to 2.2 (decrease of -0.3 [95% CI: -0.1; -0.5]) and led to more than half of the patients having at least one sub-therapeutic INR measurement. Six to 12 weeks later, the VKA dose/INR was increased by 11%, indicating a weakened effect of the VKA. Conclusion: Initiation of glucose-lowering treatment reduces the anticoagulant effect of VKAs to an extent that is likely to be clinically relevant. This finding needs confirmation and mechanistic explanation.
