I receive my clinical assignment today with a medical diagnosis of 'supratherapeutic INR . What exactly is supratherapeutic INR? I've done some research but didn't get a clear answer. From my understanding, supratherpeutic INR means that a patient who is on warfarin or an anticoagulant has maintained a level of the drug above the therapeutic level.
This topic discusses risk factors for warfarin-associated bleeding and poor international normalized ratio (INR) control and presents an approach to the management of a patient with warfarin-associated bleeding or an INR above the therapeutic range (ie, a supratherapeutic INR).
by D Nam 2024 Cited by 22INR checks can vary based on the presence of a subtherapeutic or supratherapeutic INR level. All INR levels and blood draws are ordered by a clinical nurse
For patients initiating prednisone therapy, preemptive warfarin dose reduction resulted in a non-significant reduction in supratherapeutic INR but increased the likelihood of subtherapeutic INR compared to INR monitoring with reactive warfarin dose adjustment.

In addition, warfarin doses and international normalized ratio (INR) values were calculated week-by-week after the initiation of amiodarone. Results The initiation of amiodarone increased the mean INR from 2.6 to 3.1. The proportion of patients with a supratherapeutic INR over 3.0 and 4.0 increased from 12% to 37% and 0.9% to 5.5%, respectively.
