Why would anybody ever name a drug "warfarin"?

Yes. It's an anticoagulant, so people with heart disease take small doses to prevent blood clots/strokes/heart attacks. Large doses relative to body weight cause death from internal bleeding. The rats just OD easily because they're little, it's not a rat-specific poison.
