Warfarin is a medication in the class of anticoagulants or blood thinners. Warfarin levels are checked through the blood and can not be adequately determined in the urine or stool.
They test stool for a lot of things, but drugs, so far as I know, are not one of the things they test it for. (Mostly stool samples are tested for bacteria and blood.) To test stool for drugs they'd have to liquify it, for starters. It would just be easier to ask for urine instead of stool.

Stool and Urine
The stool O and P test is the stool ova and parasites test. In this test, a stool sample is examined for the presence of intestinal parasites and their eggs, which are called ova.
Urine can contaminate stool samples, potentially leading to inaccurate results in stool analysis. The presence of urine may introduce bacteria or other substances that can interfere with the detection of pathogens, blood, or other diagnostic markers in the stool. To ensure reliable outcomes, it's essential to collect stool samples carefully, minimizing any contact with urine. Proper collection techniques help maintain the integrity of the sample for accurate analysis.
Alcohol itself is not typically detected in a standard stool test. However, its metabolites, such as ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate, may be found in stool samples, indicating recent alcohol consumption. The presence of these metabolites can help assess alcohol use or potential abuse. Stool tests are not commonly used for alcohol detection; urine or blood tests are more standard for this purpose.
One may be referring to an heme-occult stool test - a test whereby one determines whether there is blood in the stool or not.
The stool, urates and urine
Kidney produces urine and stool
That would refer to having another stool test (testing fecal matter for blood).A re-test is a do over.
