In 1962 it was regulated by watching for blood in the urine. If it appeared, the dose was "backed off some". My pharmacology textbook was copyrighted in 1960. It has only about 250 words about warfarin. It was the same text that medical students were using. This was 5 years after it was given to President Eisenhower. Just imagine the feeding frenzy that the news media would go into it it became known that President Bush took a medication that we only knew 250 words about.
I was giving a talk once in a small city where everybody in healthcare had covered for everyone else. They all knew a person who was taking 100 mg daily and was being managed by a hematologist at a university hospital.
