From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: vitamin K at 100 mcg per capsule. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in blood clotting and bone health.

The capsule also holds inactive ingredients—rice flour, gelatin, silica, and magnesium stearate—which help form and stabilize the supplement.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: vitamin K for blood clotting and bone health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hemorrhagic disease, Hypoprothrombinemia, Intraventricular hemorrhage, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD), Warfarin anticoagulation, Osteoporosis — and 3 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hemorrhagic disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hypoprothrombinemia, Warfarin anticoagulation, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoporosis.

Vitamin K is effective for treating low blood clotting factors (hypoprothrombinemia and vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency), clotting problems caused by warfarin reversal, and hemorrhagic disease. It's possibly effective for osteoporosis.

The evidence for bone health is not as strong as for clotting disorders, but research suggests it may help.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Vitamin K supplements work well for clotting disorders and may help bone health. If you're on warfarin or another blood thinner, do not take this without your doctor's say-so—vitamin K can interfere with how those drugs work.

If you're generally healthy and not on blood thinners, this is a safe option, but it's worth a quick conversation with your pharmacist first.
