Sitaxsentan is a potent and selective agent which inhibits ET-1 binding to ETA receptors (IC50 = 1.4 nM), while being essentially inactive at ETB receptors (IC50 = 9.8 pM).23 In the clinic, it was found to have excellent oral bioavailability (70-100%) and a terminal elimination half-life of 10 h, and is administered as a once daily 100 mg dose. It is highly protein bound in plasma (> 99%) and extensively metabolized in the liver to inactive metabolites, predominantly by CYPs 2C9 and 3A4. Excretion is 50 60% renal, with the balance in the feces.25 Sitaxsentan inhibits CYP 2C9, and was observed to increase exposure to warfarin by over twofold. The use of cyclosporine A is also contraindicated, but no interactions were observed with sildenafil.15 Sitaxsentan was well tolerated in trials, with only minor side effects reported. Reversible liver enzyme abnormalities were also observed, but less frequently than with bosentan.15 25...

There is no established pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic interaction between the phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitors and warfarin, and no warfarin dose adjustment would therefore be expected to be needed on concurrent use. However, in pulmonary hypertension, sildenafil appears to increase the risk of nosebleeds, and this may be greater in patients taking coumarins. Similarly, the two possible cases with acenocoumarol and warfarin, although not conclusive, do introduce a note of caution. 

Sildenafil 50 mg did not alter the pharmacokinetics of tolbutamide 250 mg, probably beeause sildenafil is only a weak inhibitor of the cytochrome P450 isoenzyme CYP2C9 (consider also warfarin , (p.441)).
