Warfarin is an oral vitamin K antagonist prescribed to those patients for the treatment and prevention of thromboembolism. The major challenges to be faced during the therapy were a greater risk for both major as well as minor bleeding, which makes the regular monitoring of INR (international normalized ratio) mandatory. Herein, we reported a case of Warfarin induced hematuria which is serious and we concluded this causality as possible category according WHO-UMC causality category.
