Question: |
Can someone on blood-thinning medication (aspirin, Plavix, Coumadin/Warfarin) take supplements containing vitamin K? |
Answer: |
We strongly suggest that anyone currently on blood thinning medications discuss the use of vitamin K-containing supplements (including the Essentials, HealthPak, and Active Calcium) with their physician. Aspirin and Plavix, which both work by different mechanisms than Coumadin, are not generally affected by normal vitamin K intake. |
