Having a body piercing or tattoo is not recommended while you're taking warfarin. This is because of the increased risk of bleeding and infection.
If you still want to go ahead, talk to your doctor about your specific risks in case you need antibiotics or changes to your warfarin dose.
And let the tattooist or piercer know beforehand that you're taking an anticoagulant medicine.
