HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K2 MK-7 200 by ProCaps Laboratories

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Vitamin K Complex” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (250 mcg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This softgel contains 2 active ingredients: vitamin K1 and vitamin K2 (as the MK-7 form), both essential for blood clotting and bone metabolism. The softgel is filled with extra virgin olive oil to aid absorption.

There are no other added active 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: bone health and cardiovascular support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Osteoporosis, Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Hemorrhagic disease, Hypoprothrombinemia, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD), Warfarin anticoagulation — and 3 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 K1 and K2 are both effective for treating vitamin K deficiency states and related bleeding disorders. The data also shows they are possibly effective for osteoporosis, though the evidence isn't as strong.

If you're taking this for bone health, the evidence is promising but not yet definitive.

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 in healthy people at typical dietary and supplement doses. The most common side effects are mild: nausea, diarrhea, and stomach upset.

Both vitamin K1 and K2 are rated likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. That said, if you're pregnant, nursing, or have a serious health condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting any supplement.

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.

Check before taking this if you're on warfarin (Coumadin) or any blood thinner — vitamin K directly reduces its effectiveness and could raise your clot risk. Your doctor or pharmacist needs to know if you want to add this supplement.

Promotes bone and heart health

All-Solar manufacturing

Vitamin K's name originates from the role of vitamin K-1 in blood clotting (koagulation in German) but, today, its most important function centers around vitamin K-2 MK-7 and its now recognized role in the utilization of calcium within the body and, as a result, its indispensable role in both bone health, as well as heart and cardiovascular health. These far-reaching benefits to skeletal and cardiovascular health have now been consistently observed and established in the scientific literature.

Plus, for any person consuming calcium and vitamin D, vitamin K-2 MK-7 has been shown to ensure the greatest benefits of those essential nutrients. It is also important to note that the best source of vitamin K-2 is the unusual Japanese food called fermented natto from soybeans, which virtually no Americans consume. Fortunately, our vitamin K2 MK-7 200 makes it easy and economical to obtain all the benefits of vitamin K-2 in a small easy-to-swallow capsule.

Precautions

Warning Unless directed by a physician, vitamin K is not for use with any anticoagulant drugs (Coumadin, Warfarin, Heparin, etc).

If you have ever experienced any blood clotting abnormalities, consult with a health professional before using this or any vitamin K-containing product.

Vitamin K2 MK-7 200 by ProCaps Laboratories: Common Questions

Does Vitamin K2 MK-7 200 by ProCaps Laboratories interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vitamin K2 MK-7 200 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 K2 MK-7 200 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.
Will this interact with my warfarin?
Yes — vitamin K in this product antagonizes warfarin and can weaken its blood-thinning effect, which is a major concern. Do not take this without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first; they may need to adjust your warfarin dose or monitor you more closely if you do take it.
What side effects should I expect?
Most people tolerate vitamin K well when taken by mouth. The most common side effects are mild: nausea, diarrhea, and stomach upset. Serious reactions are very rare and were mainly seen with intravenous dosing, not oral supplements like this one.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Both vitamin K1 and K2 are rated likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. That said, it's always wise to mention any supplement to your doctor or midwife during pregnancy to make sure it fits your individual care plan.
Will this help my osteoporosis?
Vitamin K is possibly effective for osteoporosis, but the evidence isn't as strong as it is for its blood-clotting role. Talk with your doctor about whether adding this supplement makes sense as part of your bone health plan.
What's the difference between K1 and K2?
Both are forms of vitamin K and both work similarly in your body for clotting and bone metabolism. K2 (specifically the MK-7 form here) may have slightly better absorption, but for practical purposes they serve the same roles — and both carry the same warfarin interaction.
