HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K Complex by Wellness Resources

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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Vitamin K” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (1,600 mcg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains 3 active ingredients, all forms of vitamin K: Vitamin K2, Vitamin K1, and K2Vital. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin your body uses to make proteins that help blood clot and support bone health.

The product also contains cellulose and rice hull as inactive ingredients.

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: supports bone strength and arterial health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Osteoporosis, Stroke, bone density, vascular calcification, arterial stiffness.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin K is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoporosis (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Stroke.

Both Vitamin K2 and Vitamin K1 are rated Effective for treating clotting problems caused by low vitamin K (hypoprothrombinemia), vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, and hemorrhagic disease. They're also rated Effective for reversing warfarin's effects when that's medically necessary.

For osteoporosis, the evidence is Possibly Effective — the science is less established, but there's some promise.

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.

When taken by mouth, vitamin K is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and stomach upset — usually mild to moderate.

Serious reactions are rare. Normal food amounts of vitamin K are fine; if you're considering supplements, check with your doctor first, especially if you're on any blood-thinning medication.

During pregnancy and lactation, vitamin K is rated Likely Safe.

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.

Most important: warfarin (Coumadin) and other blood thinners. Vitamin K in this product blocks warfarin's effects (Major severity).

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 product works well for supporting clotting factors and bone health in people who aren't on warfarin or other blood thinners. If you take warfarin, ask your pharmacist or doctor before adding this — the interaction is Major and can undo your blood thinner's protection.

For anyone else on regular medications, check with us or your pharmacist first.
