HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K2 Softgel by KR
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 softgel contains one active ingredient: Vitamin K2, a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in blood clotting and bone metabolism. The softgel itself is made up of inactive ingredients—sunflower seed oil, gelatin, glycerin, and purified water—which help deliver the vitamin in an easy-to-swallow form.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin K2 is effective for treating vitamin K deficiency conditions, including hypoprothrombinemia (a clotting disorder), vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, warfarin-related anticoagulation, and hemorrhagic disease. The evidence also suggests it may be effective for osteoporosis, though the data is rated as possibly effective rather than definitive.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Taken by mouth, vitamin K is generally well tolerated in healthy people at dietary amounts and typical supplement doses. The most common side effects are mild: diarrhea, nausea, and stomach upset.
The safety data advises that normal dietary amounts are fine, but you should check with your doctor before taking supplements, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or take medications.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Before you take this, double-check if you're on warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner. Vitamin K can weaken warfarin's effect, which is a Major concern.
If you're unsure whether your medication is affected, use the drug checker on this page with your exact medication names.
The bottom line
