HelloPharmacist Scorecard of KD Ultra by Arthur Andrew Medical
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
Partial disclosure
KD Ultra contains 6 ingredients: three forms of vitamin K (vitamin K, menaquinone-4, and menaquinone-7), lipase (an enzyme that helps break down fats), vitamin D3, and a blend containing MK-6 and MK-9. Vitamin K supports blood clotting and bone health; lipase aids fat digestion.
The other ingredients are cellulose and rice dextrin, which are inactive fillers.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin K in this product is effective for blood clotting disorders like vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency and hemorrhagic disease, and it's effective at managing warfarin anticoagulation when dosed properly under medical supervision. For osteoporosis, vitamin K is rated possibly effective.
Lipase's effectiveness for inflammatory bowel disease or indigestion is not well established — we hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate it. Vitamin D3 and the MK-6/MK-9 blend effectiveness data isn't on file.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin K is generally well tolerated orally. The most common side effects are mild: nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea — a small number of people experience these.
Vitamin K is likely safe in pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Lipase has no reported adverse effects in adults, though safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited — if you're pregnant or nursing, check with your doctor first.
Because we hold little safety data on the vitamin D3 and MK-6/MK-9 components in pregnancy or breastfeeding, discuss those with your healthcare provider if you're in either situation.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Check before taking this product if you use warfarin (Coumadin) or any blood thinner. Vitamin K can reduce how well these medications work at preventing clots.
We could not verify interactions for vitamin D3 and MK-6/MK-9, so ask your pharmacist to screen those ingredients against your other medications as well.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is mainly a vitamin K supplement paired with lipase and vitamin D3. If you take warfarin or any other blood thinner, you must talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it — vitamin K can interfere with those medications.
For anyone else, it's generally well tolerated, though mild digestive upset can happen. Run your medications through the search tool on this page, and check with your own doctor or pharmacist before you start.

Formula
Vitamin K is essential for maintaining the body's calcium balance which is critical for bone and blood health, while Vitamin D promotes bone health, cognitive function, and immune support. Several different forms of Vitamin K2 exist, ranging from MK4 to MK13, each providing unique health benefits. Until recently, only MK4 and MK7 were available in supplements. KD Ultra now supplies a full-spectrum blend of four available forms of Vitamin K2 (MK-4, 6, 7, 9), along with Vitamin K1. KD Ultra also contains vegan-friendly Vitamin D3 sourced from lichen as well as the enzyme lipase to help facilitate the absorption of these fat-soluble vitamins. This perfect blend maintains proper blood clotting, healthy blood viscosity, strong bones, normal brain and nervous system health, and a healthy immune system, all in one easy-to-take supplement.
