What is INR Ranges for Warfarin Patients about?

INR is the ratio between the prothrombin time with treatment and the normal prothrombin time. For patients not taking blood thinners like warfarin, the normal PT range is 11-13.5 seconds or an INR of 1-1.1. For patients taking warfarin to prevent blood clots, doctors typically aim to keep the INR between 2-3 to balance thinning the blood enough to prevent clots without making it too thin.
