"I am a retired nurse. I have been plagued with bruises all over my hands and arms every time I touched or bumped anything. I decided to try Vitamin K1 100 mcg as my multivitamin was only supplying 28% of my daily requirement. I have been taking it for 3 weeks. Not one bruise!"

For Vitamin K Deficiency "The administration of this drug caused my 9-pound otherwise completely healthy newborn to get severe jaundice. My newborn had to be under bili lights for 5 days, starting one day after the administration of the K1 shot at birth. I was not aware this injection comes with a black box warning. I was not aware or told my child was receiving it. If I had known the risks, I would have absolutely declined it. It was completely unnecessary!"

For Vitamin K Deficiency "If you're living in the USA, you have three options with this medication. Go bankrupt, spend weeks in the hospital, or die. It cost me over $16,000 a year between paying for two insurance policies and a drug program. Now it's listed as a vitamin, so my insurance will not cover it. Cost per pill $65+, I have to take 3 a week. Now my insurance will pay the $100K it costs per hospital stay. Makes no sense? So far, I have chosen not to bleed out. If I don't buy the pills, I'm considered suicidal. They don't seem to care that I can't afford to eat."
