I've been taking Coumadin for approximately 6 months due to atrial
fibrillation and, fortunately, have had no side effects so far. As
long as I stay away from dark green vegetables my levels are within the
recommended range.

I would like to be able to take a multivitamin and was wondering if you
might be able to recommend a multivitamin that does not include vitamin
K?

Whether a multivitamin contains vitamin K or not should be clearly
marked on the packaging. If you have difficulty reading the box,
simply ask the pharmacist to help you. That is what they are there for.

Prayerfully in Christ's amazing love,

Centrum doesn't. Or at least not very much.
