HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K2 by Woodstock Vitamins
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 1 active ingredient: vitamin K2, a form of vitamin K that your body uses to make proteins needed for blood clotting and bone health. The capsule also holds inactive ingredients—microcrystalline cellulose, HPMC, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, and silica—which are binders and fillers that hold the capsule together.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin K2 is effective for treating vitamin K deficiency conditions like hypoprothrombinemia, vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency, hemorrhagic disease, and reversing excessive warfarin anticoagulation when that's medically necessary. For osteoporosis, the evidence is less settled—it's rated possibly effective, meaning there's some promise but not yet enough proof to call it a standard treatment.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Taken by mouth, vitamin K2 is generally well tolerated in healthy people at dietary levels and most supplement doses. The most common side effects are mild: nausea, stomach upset, abdominal pain, and diarrhea—a small number of people experience these.
Serious side effects from oral vitamin K are very rare. Vitamin K2 is likely safe during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, so you don't need to avoid it on those grounds alone.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you use warfarin (Coumadin) or other blood thinners in its class. Vitamin K can reduce their effectiveness and compromise your blood clot prevention.
No other interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check.
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 K2 works well for clotting and bone support, and it's generally easy on your stomach. The critical point: if you take warfarin or another blood thinner, do not start this supplement without your doctor's approval—vitamin K can interfere with how well these medications protect you.
Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before you begin, especially if you're on any blood-thinning medication.
