Cloxacillin and drug reaction

I have had my knee replacement removed because of infection. I have been on Cloxacillin since April 2011 intraveneously. I am also on anticoagulants, namely coumidin. At present my INR is 1.4 - 1.3 and has been dropping for the past month. I am taking 22 mg of coumidin daily. I am also taking 1.0ml Lovenox injections once a day. Is the cloxacillin causing my INR to drop and the clotting level to be dangerously low. I have had 2 pulmonary embolisms previous and have a CV filter in place.
