HelloPharmacist Scorecard of K2 MK-7 100 mcg by 21st Century
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product has one active ingredient: Vitamin K2 (MK-7 form) at 100 mcg per capsule. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that your body needs for blood clotting and bone health.
The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — cellulose, oat fiber, dicalcium phosphate, magnesium silicate, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — which are fillers and binders that hold the supplement together.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin K2 is effective for treating vitamin K deficiency conditions, including hypoprothrombinemia (a blood-clotting problem), vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, and hemorrhagic disease (bleeding disorders). It's also effective for managing warfarin anticoagulation when doses are coordinated with your doctor.
For bone health and osteoporosis, the evidence shows it's possibly effective, meaning the data suggests a benefit but more research is needed to be certain.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Taken by mouth, vitamin K2 is generally well tolerated in healthy people at normal doses. The most common side effects are mild: nausea, diarrhea, stomach upset, and abdominal pain.
These effects tend to be mild to moderate. The safety data advises checking with your doctor before taking supplements, especially if you have any health conditions.
Vitamin K2 is rated likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your pharmacist or doctor if you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner. Vitamin K2 can reduce the blood-thinning effect and increase your clot risk.
This is a Major interaction and needs medical oversight.
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.
K2 MK-7 is a straightforward supplement for supporting bone and clotting health — but it's not for everyone. If you take warfarin or any blood thinner, you must talk to your doctor before starting it.
Anyone else in good health can consider it, but a quick conversation with your pharmacist or doctor about your other medications is smart.
