Major interactions (3)
- CapecitabineantimetaboliteMajor
WARNING: SERIOUS ADVERSE REACTIONS OR DEATH IN PATIENTS WITH COMPLETE DPD DEFICIENCY and INCREASED RISK OF BLEEDING WITH CONCOMITANT USE OF VITAMIN K ANTAGONISTS Increased risk of serious adverse reactions or death in patients with complete DPD deficiency • Test patients for genetic variants of DPYD prior to initiating XELODA unless immediate treatment is necessary. (Capecitabine label, Boxed warning)
A potentially life-threatening bleeding disorder related to decreased levels of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors may occur in newborns exposed to phenytoin in utero. (Phenytoin label, Warnings and precautions)
Postmarketing reports suggest that concomitant administration of high doses of cefazolin and rifampin may prolong the prothrombin time, leading to severe vitamin K–dependent coagulation disorders that may be life-threatening or fatal. (Rifampin label, Warnings)
Moderate interactions (16)
- ApixabananticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- CefiximecephalosporinModerate
Prothrombin time should be monitored in patients at risk and exogenous vitamin K administered as indicated. (Cefixime label, Warnings and precautions)
- Colesevelambile acid sequestrantModerate
Vitamin K or Fat-Soluble Vitamin Deficiencies: Colesevelam hydrochloride may decrease absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. (Colesevelam label, Warnings and precautions)
- DabigatrananticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- EdoxabananticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- EnoxaparinanticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- FondaparinuxanticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- HeparinanticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- Methimazoleantithyroid drugModerate
Drug Interactions Anticoagulants (oral): Due to potential inhibition of vitamin K activity by methimazole, the activity of oral anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin) may be increased; additional monitoring of PT/INR should be considered, especially before surgical procedures. β-adrenergic blocking agents: Hyperthyroidism may cause an increased clearance of beta blockers… (Methimazole label, Drug interactions)
- NeomycinaminoglycosideModerate
Oral neomycin sulfate may enhance the effect of coumarin in anticoagulants by decreasing vitamin K availability. (Neomycin label, Drug interactions)
- OrlistatModerate
The effect of ORLISTAT on the absorption of supplemental vitamin D, vitamin A, and nutritionally-derived vitamin K is not known at this time [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) , and Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . (Orlistat label, Drug interactions)
- PentoxifyllinemethylxanthineModerate
Increased prothrombin time has been reported in patients concomitantly treated with pentoxifylline and vitamin K antagonists. (Pentoxifylline label, Drug interactions)
- Propylthiouracilantithyroid drugModerate
Drug Interactions Anticoagulants (oral): Due to the potential inhibition of vitamin K activity by propylthiouracil, the activity of oral anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin) may be increased; additional monitoring of PT/INR should be considered, especially before surgical procedures. (Propylthiouracil label, Drug interactions)
- RivaroxabananticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)
- TestosteroneandrogenModerate
Oral Vitamin K Antagonist Anticoagulants Changes in anticoagulant activity may be seen with androgens; therefore, more frequent monitoring of international normalized ratio (INR) and prothrombin time are recommended in patients taking warfarin, especially at the initiation and termination of androgen therapy. (Testosterone label, Drug interactions)
- WarfarinanticoagulantModerate
Anticoagulants Phytonadione injectable emulsion may induce temporary resistance to prothrombin-depressing anticoagulants, especially when larger doses of phytonadione injectable emulsion are used. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Drug interactions)

- PrimidoneanticonvulsantMinor
Neonatal hemorrhage, with a coagulation defect resembling vitamin K deficiency, has been described in newborns whose mothers were taking primidone and other anticonvulsants. (Primidone label, Warnings)
- Vitamin KVitamin and mineralMinor
Cutaneous Reactions Parenteral administration of vitamin K replacements (including phytonadione injectable emulsion) may cause cutaneous reactions. (Phytonadione (vitamin K1) label, Warnings and precautions)
