HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin K2 MK-7 240 mcg 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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: vitamin K2 (MK-7 form), at 240 micrograms per softgel. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that your body uses to make proteins involved in blood clotting and bone health.
The softgel also contains organic extra virgin olive oil and a soft-gelatin capsule as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin K2 is effective for treating vitamin K deficiency conditions — specifically hypoprothrombinemia (a blood-clotting disorder), vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency, and hemorrhagic disease. It's also effective for managing warfarin anticoagulation under medical supervision.
For osteoporosis, the evidence is weaker; vitamin K shows possibly effective benefit, but the data isn't as strong as it is for clotting disorders.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Taken by mouth, vitamin K2 is generally well tolerated in healthy people at typical food and supplement doses. The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal ones — nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and stomach upset — though these aren't universal.
The safety notes advise checking with your doctor before taking supplements, even though normal dietary amounts are fine. Vitamin K2 is likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, based on the data we hold.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Blood thinners — especially warfarin (Coumadin) — are the big one. Vitamin K can reverse their effects, which is a Major interaction.
If you're on a blood thinner, discuss this supplement with your pharmacist before starting it.
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 MK-7 is a good choice if you want to support your clotting factors or explore bone health benefits. The catch: if you take warfarin or any other blood thinner, you must talk to your pharmacist or doctor first — vitamin K can interfere with how these drugs work.
For everyone else, it's generally well tolerated.

Formula
Vitamin K's most active form Promotes optimum heart, bone and circulatory health.
Andrew Lessman's Vitamin K2 MK-7 240 provides the most active and beneficial form of Vitamin K-2 Menaquinone-7 (MK-7). Vitamin K2 MK-7 is now recognized as essential for bone and heart health through its role in regulating calcium metabolism. The "K" in Vitamin K2 MK-7's name stems from the role of vitamin K-1 in blood clotting, since it was discovered in Germany where "Koagulation" is spelled with a K. Vitamin K-2 MK-7's unique importance instead relates to its scientifically established central role in calcium utilization and thus bone, heart and cardiovascular health. Essentially, Vitamin K2 MK-7 promotes the retention of calcium in healthy bone while discouraging its being deposited in other tissues causing undesirable calcification of arteries, heart valves, etc. By discouraging calcification, Vitamin K2 MK-7 promotes flexible, resilient arteries and heart valves, which is a defining characteristic of cardiovascular health. In short, K2 MK-7 acts like a "traffic cop" directing calcium to the vital tissues where it is required while keeping it out of those where it is not desired. Since we all must consume calcium daily our healthy bones and flexible arteries require K2 MK-7. Sadly, there is no significant source of Vitamin K2 MK-7 in the typical American diet making supplementation the only reliable method of acquiring this essential vitamin.
