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 K2 (MenaQ7). Vitamin K2 is a fat-soluble nutrient that plays a role in blood clotting and bone health.

The softgel is made with sunflower seed oil, gelatin, glycerin, and natural caramel color as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Strong 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
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Blood clotting, bone and cardiovascular health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Hemorrhagic disease, Hypoprothrombinemia, Intraventricular hemorrhage, Osteoporosis, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD) — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hemorrhagic disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hypoprothrombinemia, Warfarin anticoagulation, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoporosis.

Vitamin K2 is effective for preventing and treating vitamin K deficiency (hypoprothrombinemia and vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency) and for managing excessive bleeding linked to warfarin use. It is possibly effective for osteoporosis.

The evidence for bone health is less established than for clotting disorders.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin K

Vitamin K-2 Mena Q7 by DC: Common Questions

Does Vitamin K-2 Mena Q7 by DC interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vitamin K-2 Mena Q7 has a known interaction with 2 medications, including 2 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Vitamin K-2 Mena Q7 contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm on warfarin?
No, not without talking to your doctor first. Vitamin K directly reduces warfarin's effect and can make blood clots more likely. Your doctor may adjust your warfarin dose if you take this supplement, or recommend against it—you need that conversation before starting.
What side effects might I notice?
Most people tolerate it well. A small number may experience mild nausea, stomach upset, or diarrhea. These tend to be minor and infrequent.
Is this safe during pregnancy?
Vitamin K2 is rated likely safe in pregnancy, but check with your doctor or midwife before taking any supplement—they'll know your full health picture and can give you personalized advice.
What does vitamin K2 actually do?
It helps your body make clotting factors that stop bleeding, and it plays a role in bone health. It's effective for preventing vitamin K deficiency and managing clotting problems; it's possibly effective for osteoporosis support.
Is this the same as the vitamin K in food?
This is vitamin K2 specifically, a form found in fermented foods, cheese, and some animal products. The more common dietary form is K1 from leafy greens. Both are vitamin K, and both can affect warfarin.
