Vitamin K1 is a fat-soluble vitamin used to treat hemorrhagic conditions in infants and coumarin overdoses. Vitamin K1, also called phylloquinone or phytonadione is a cofactor of the enzyme γ-carboxylase, which modifies and activates precursors to coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X. It is indicated in the treatment of coagulation disorders due to faulty formation of coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X caused by deficiency or interference in the activity of vitamin K.
