[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1334647, member: 41816"] I should have a google for drug interactions. That is all most docs would do to check for interactions between drugs, herbs and supplements. This is the one I use: [URL]http://reference.medscape.com/drug-interactionchecker[/URL] As for the K2 dose. I am taking 200 units daily, based on quite a bit of reading round. But i think everyone needs to make their own decision on this. Personally I prefer the natto derived K2 rather than the synthetic version. I haven't yet seen any evidence that even huge doses are harmful. This link is in line with a lot of my reading, [URL]http://omegavia.com/vitamin-k2-part-2/[/URL] but bear in mind, the link is to commercial site I have also increased my dietary sources of K2 rich cheese and use grass fed butter. Also have a read around on the relationship between D3 and K2. My own view is that we need K2 to use D3 properly. Please realise that I am NOT an expert on this. I am just interested in the subject, and have a personal history of Vit D deficiency, which is what started me reading around on the subject. :) so please do the same, and check everything that anybody suggests to you before you actually start acting on their suggestions. While you are doing that checking, it is worth remembering that any info source that confuses K2 with plain old Vit K and Vit K1 (for blood clotting) is confused, and their info shouldn't be trusted. :D [/QUOTE]
