PubMed indexes 8 records that name Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 together, either in the title or in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context. The key findings come first, in the authors’ own words, followed by every study with its design and PubMed link.
A summary of published research, not medical advice. A pharmacist can check any combination against your full list of medicines and supplements.
Reviews and human studies first. Each quote is the authors’ own conclusion about their study, not a NutriStack assessment, and a single study is not a consensus.
“These results suggest an early beneficial effect of the combination of vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 on BMD in ALL patients especially during the period of intensive steroid therapy in the first months.”
“Active vitamin D3 and its derivatives have their own feature of pharmacokinetics, due to differences in binding affinity for carrier protein such as vitamin D binding protein and in metabolism. Menatetrenone is easily absorbed from intestine, and distribute to bone higher than other natural vitamin K homologues.”
“In turbidimetric analysis, the destabilization by creaming formation in the upper layer of the lipid nanocarriers emulsified with a high polysorbate ratio was observed. However, the use of combination of both emulsifiers inhibited destabilization by flocculation as well as retained the cholecalciferol and menaquinone after all heat treatments.”
Strongest relevance first: papers naming both substances in the title, then human trials and systematic reviews.

Names both Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 in its title.
“Within the limitations of this study, vitamin D3 and K2 alone or in combination did not affect gingival IL-1β and IL-10, serum B-ALP and TRAP-5b levels, or alveolar bone compared with conventional periodontal therapy alone.”

“The validation results indicated that the method had reasonable linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9990), good recovery (>82%), satisfactory intra-day precision (≤1.9%) and inter-day precision (≤3.5%), and high selectivity and specificity. The validated UHPLC method was demonstrated to be precise, accurate, and robust for the simultaneous determination of vitamins D3 (CT and CHL) and K2 (MK-4 and MK-7) in dietary supplements.”

Search-based evidence indexes have real limits, and it is worth being explicit about them:
NutriStack is a free iPhone app for organising a supplement routine: what you take, when, and what the published record says about it. Its exploratory interaction checker covers Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2, and several hundred other substances.
Log your routine, get reminders at the times you choose, and scan a label to add a product. The checker is a research and organisation tool, not a clinical decision aid.
NutriStack is an informational and organizational tool, not a medical service, and not a substitute for professional advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping, or changing any supplement or medication.
