Q

what do you use to reverse warfarin?
Why is this fast but temporary?

A

PCC or FFP

Warfarin only depletes your clotting factors, it doesnt all the way eliminate them. As soon as u give pt more factors, they are back to normal. However, this is only temp because warfarin has a long half life, so your liver is still not making factors at the rate that’s needed to keep up with body’s needs
