HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K 100 mcg by Puritan's Pride
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 contains one active ingredient: vitamin K, a fat-soluble vitamin essential for blood clotting and bone health. The tablet also includes four inactive ingredients—dicalcium phosphate, cellulose, stearic acid, and magnesium stearate—which serve as fillers and binders to hold the tablet together.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin K is effective for treating certain bleeding disorders, including low levels of clotting factors (hypoprothrombinemia), vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, and hemorrhagic disease. It's also effective for managing warfarin anticoagulation when medically indicated.
The evidence for bone health (osteoporosis) is possibly effective, meaning there's some support but it's not as well established as its clotting benefits.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Taken by mouth, vitamin K is generally well tolerated in the amounts found in food and standard supplements for healthy people. The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal effects — nausea, stomach upset, and diarrhea — though these occur in only a small number of people.
The safety data shows vitamin K is likely safe in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, though it's still a good idea to check with your doctor before starting any supplement during those times.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Warfarin (Coumadin) and related blood thinners are the main concern here — Major severity. Vitamin K can weaken how well these drugs work at preventing blood clots.
Check any blood thinner you take before starting this supplement.
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 is a good choice if you need to support clotting factors or have been diagnosed with a specific vitamin K deficiency. If you take warfarin or any other blood thinner, you must talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this — your dose may need to be adjusted.
For anyone else on regular medications, run them through the checker below.
