Hi Alison, Great question. Warfarin is only listed as “conditionally inappropriate” meaning it is only flagged when used inappropriately (such as when monitoring is poor or when used with certain high‑risk interacting medications). warfarin reduces stroke risk in AFib by preventing clot formation, which is critical. The correct answer is increasing calorie intake as this would likely lead to weight gain which INCREASES stroke risk. Does this help?
