Mary Beth and List:

I just did a quick google search on coumadin and singing and this is what I
came up with:

Coumadin: Dupont: Warfarin: anticoagulant:
Vocal performers, particularly, should be cautious about using
medications that decrease platelet function during periods of strenous
voicing demands, due to an increased possibility of vocal fold hemorrhage.

Here's the site which has the 200 most commonly prescribed drugs and their
affect on voice and speech.
