HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Certified Vegan K2 500 mcg Natural Strawberry Flavor by Country Life

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.

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 (500 mcg per serving). Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin your body uses to produce proteins involved in blood clotting and bone metabolism.

The remaining ingredients — glucose, cellulose, glyceryl behenate, citric acid, natural strawberry flavor, medium chain triglyceride, silicon dioxide, and rebaudioside A — are inactive excipients (fillers and binders) that help form and flavor the tablet.

Does it work?

Moderate 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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Bone formation and health with calcium and vitamin D.
  • We looked for evidence on: Osteoporosis, Bone density, Bone strength, Fracture prevention.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin K is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoporosis (Natural Medicines).

Vitamin K is effective for treating vitamin K deficiency (hypoprothrombinemia), vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, reversing excessive warfarin anticoagulation, and treating hemorrhagic disease. The evidence also suggests it may be possibly effective for osteoporosis, though the data isn't as strong.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin K

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Taken by mouth, vitamin K is generally well tolerated in healthy people at normal dietary amounts. The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal — nausea, stomach upset, and diarrhea — reported in a small number of people.

The safety notes caution that while normal dietary amounts are fine, you should check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking supplements. Vitamin K is rated likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin K

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitamin K.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 2 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner (anticoagulant), double-check with your pharmacist before adding this product. Vitamin K can reduce how well your blood thinner works, which is a major concern.

The bottom line

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

This is a straightforward K2 supplement for people who want to support their clotting and bone health. If you take warfarin or any blood thinner, you absolutely must talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting it — vitamin K can interfere with how your medication works.

Otherwise, it's generally well tolerated with only mild GI side effects in some people.
