Warfarin/Blood Pressure Tablets and Lifting...

[UKRed]

I’ve been wondering, I know some medication can affect acrylic nails but I was wondering, can warfarin or high blood pressure tablets cause nails to lift after a week (week and a half at most)?

I have been on warfarin for over 5 years and I am on it for the rest of my life and my acrylics never last more than about a week and a half before I have to infill them. I thought I was doing something wrong but I had some done by other nail techs and they needed infilling after a week….

Same with my mum… she is on alsorts of different blood pressure medicines though and other stuff but she does pick a little…. Could I be doing something wrong? Or do these medications affect it? Or do some people’s nails just grow faster than others?

I had a client on Warfarin, she had fibreglass enhancements and had nothing but problems (lifting etc), so much so that she stopped her appointments, I put it down to her medication as I wasn't getting the problems with any other client.

Some people's nails do grow very fast compared to others, I have one lady in particular whose nails grow 1/4 of her nailbed every 3 weeks

I had a client for 4 years who was on Warfarin, we got no lifting whatsoever (sadly she's no longer with us)

Maybe it depends on the person as well and their own personal body chemistry?
