Warfarin is contraindicated in?

Pregnancy
Asthma
COPD
Gout

The correct answer is: Pregnancy

Warfarin is a blood thinner used to prevent blood clots, and is generally safe for most people. However, it is contraindicated, or not recommended, for pregnant women. This is because warfarin can potentially cause birth defects and complications during pregnancy. It is important to discuss any potential risks with your doctor before taking warfarin during pregnancy. The other options listed are not contraindications for warfarin. Asthma, COPD, and gout do not interact with warfarin and can coexist without any issues.
