Overview

Phytonadione is a fat-soluble naphthoquinone derivative that is identical to naturally occurring vitamin K1.

Phytonadione is used in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of coagulation disorders due to faulty formation of factors II, VII, IX, and X caused by vitamin K deficiency or interference with vitamin K activity. Phytonadione is more effective than, and is preferred to, other vitamin K preparations in the presence of impending or actual hemorrhage. However, because phytonadione may require 3 hours or longer to stop active bleeding, administration of clotting factors (e.g., prothrombin complex concentrate (human)), fresh whole blood, or plasma may be necessary for more rapid control of severe bleeding.

Indications

The following indications are listed for Multiple Vitamin Iv Adult Vl 2:

  • Vitamin Deficiency
  • Vitamin Deficiency Prevention

Also known as: Vitamin Deficiency Prophylaxis.

Dosing

Dose, frequency of administration, and duration of treatment with phytonadione depend on the severity of the prothrombin deficiency and the response of the patient; the lowest effective dose of phytonadione should be used.

Drug interactions

Because vitamin K1 is a pharmacologic antagonist to coumarin and indandione derivatives, patients being treated with these anticoagulants should not receive phytonadione except for the treatment of excessive hypoprothrombinemia. Phytonadione does not antagonize the anticoagulant effects of heparin, low molecular weight heparins, fondaparinux, or direct-acting oral anticoagulants.

Orlistat may result in decreased GI absorption of fat-soluble vitamins such as phytonadione (vitamin K1). At least 2 hours should elapse between (before or after) any orlistat dose and phytonadione administration; administering fat-soluble vitamins at bedtime may be a convenient time. Although the manufacturer of orlistat recommends that a vitamin supplement containing fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) be used during orlistat therapy, such vitamin concentrations in clinical studies with the drug remained within the normal range for most patients despite decreases, and vitamin supplementation was only occasionally needed.
