AnnotationThis study concerns patients stabilised on warfarin for a median period of 10 years for prophylaxis of thromboembolic disease. The relationship between change in dose requirements and ageing is in good agreement with that established by cross-sectional studies, suggesting that no major birth cohort effect is influencing requirements in our warfarin-treated population.
