Is vitamin K2 ok with edoxaban?

I'm in the UK I'll keep it brief but I take edoxaban and bisoprolol for afib. I'm aware that historically Warfarin has a question mark over vitamin K1 for various reasons Some people seem to monitor using inr testing but my question is that more modern anti coagulants use a different mechanism of action.

Has anyone looked into or has the official word on whether K2 affects the effectiveness of edoxaban (my main concern),. Has anyone sought gp advice etc? My gp is unlikely to keep abreast of things in such detail so I thought I'd ask on here to see if anyone has any elightenment on the current view on taking K2 with edoxaban.

Thanks in advance .

Edoxaban is not a VIT K antagonist but if you are not sure ask your pharmacist.

I have taken K2 and eliquis for several years. No problem so far.
