WarfarinDosing.org is a free Web site created to help doctors and other clinicians begin warfarin therapy by estimating the therapeutic dose in patients new to warfarin. The site is supported by the Barnes-Jewish Hospital at Washington University Medical Center, the NIH and donations. Estimates are based on clinical factors and (when available) genotypes of two genes: cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1).
