Or maybe it is just that the actual incidence of schizophrenia is actually much higher than the ~ 1% that it is thought to be.

‘I’ve never liked this scene,’ I said. ‘Detective confronts murderer. Murderer produces gun, points same at detective.

Well, as Dr. EZ mentioned, the risk is pretty low. I would say it’s something to avoid if you have higher risk factors for bleeding (older age, history of gastrointestinal bleeding, renal failure, low platelets, etc) but on the other hand you have that same risk with Coumadin if your INR shoots through the roof.
