HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K2 Menaquinone-7 100 mcg by Basic 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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 24, 2026

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 (menaquinone-7) at 100 mcg per softgel. The remaining ingredients are inactive — they're part of the capsule and formulation (sunflower seed oil, gelatin, vegetable glycerin, beeswax, purified water, lecithin, carob, caramel, and calcium phosphate).

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: bone health and blood clotting support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hemorrhagic disease, Hypoprothrombinemia, Osteoporosis, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD), Warfarin anticoagulation, bone mineralization — and 1 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 correcting vitamin K-dependent clotting factor deficiency (VKCFD), hypoprothrombinemia (low clotting factors in blood), hemorrhagic disease, and reversing warfarin anticoagulation when needed. For bone health and osteoporosis, the evidence is possibly effective — the data suggests a potential benefit, but it's not as firmly established as it is for clotting.

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.

Vitamin K taken by mouth is generally well tolerated in healthy people. The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal ones — nausea, stomach upset, abdominal pain, and diarrhea — though most people don't experience them.

The safety data notes that normal dietary amounts of vitamin K are fine, but if you're considering a supplement, check with your doctor first. Vitamin K2 is rated likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin K

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.

Before taking this supplement, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on warfarin or any blood thinner (anticoagulant). Vitamin K can reduce their effectiveness, and that's a serious concern.

The interaction data we have is specific to warfarin, but your provider needs to review your full medication list.

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 is a solid choice if you need to correct a vitamin K deficiency or support bone health, and it's generally well tolerated. If you take warfarin or any blood thinner, this is not a supplement to start without clearing it with your doctor first — it can interfere with how your medication works.

Talk with your own pharmacist or doctor before adding it to your routine, especially if you're on any medications.
