The main dietary concern of taking warfarin/coumadin has to do with the amount of vitamin K in your diet. Vitamin K changes the way warfarin affects the blood. When you eat
foods that are high in vitamin K, you can decrease the effect of warfarin. Likewise,
eating less vitamin K can increase the effect of the medication
According to Dr. Gourmet.com, a website with online menu planning for people with special diet concerns, 1 tsp. of cardamom has a low level of vitamin k.

Can you take a double dose of Coumadin by mistake and be OK?
Please contact your physician, "Coumadin Clinic" nurse, or other medical professional to let them know that you've consumed an extra dose of Coumadin. Only they will be able to properly assist you. Since Coumadin (warfarin) inhibits blood coagulation, taking an extra dose can significantly predispose to bleeding. Whether the double dose is of any concern depends upon things like your normal Coumadin dose, recent history of antibiotic use, diet and intake of vitamin K, etc.

Can you take coumadin with niacin?
Niacin and Coumadin (Warfarin) are compatible, but their use together should be monitored by your doctor. Niacin has minor anticoagulant effects and its use, even without Coumadin, requires doctor supervision if used to affect blood lipids. Niacin can have liver toxicity if taken in high amounts. This is especially true of extended-release or sustained-release niacin. Immediate-release niacin (regular niacin, without any delaying aspect) has the least liver problems associated with it.

Can you take naproxen if your taking coumodin?
No, not without the specific instruction of a Doctor. You should not take them together unless told to do so by a doctor who is aware of your situation and why you are taking coumadin. Coumadin is taken as a blood thinner. It limits the ability of your blood to clot. Your dosage is managed by your doctor to control your clotting factor. Naproxin (as well as Ibuprofin and aspirin) also acts as blood thinners and taking them together with coumadin will change the desired blood clotting ability. An extreme situation is the use of coumadin (also called warfarin) as a rat poison. When consumed by the rodent, it bleeds internally and it dies.
