Short answer

We found no documented interaction between Ashwagandha and Vitamin D3 with A, E and K2 in the sources below. That isn't proof the combination is right for you: check each one's cautions, and ask your pharmacist if you take medication.

Ashwagandha

What it is: A plant root used in traditional Ayurvedic and Unani medicine, often called an adaptogen.

What the research says: Several small trials of 6 to 8 weeks found people felt less stress and anxiety, with doses around 500 to 600 mg a day working better than lower ones. A few small studies suggest a modest sleep benefit. It has not been studied thoroughly.

Cautions

• Well tolerated for up to about 3 months; long-term safety isn't known.
• Mild side effects can include upset stomach, loose stools, nausea and drowsiness.
• It has been linked to liver injury in some people.
• Not for people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or who have prostate cancer.

Medicines to check

• Thyroid medicine (ashwagandha may affect how the thyroid works)
• Diabetes and blood-pressure medicines
• Sedatives
• Medicines that suppress the immune system

Vitamin D3 with A, E and K2

What it is: A combination of vitamin D3 with vitamins A, E and K2. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports muscles, nerves and the immune system.

What the research says: Getting enough vitamin D and calcium helps protect against osteoporosis.

Cautions

• Adults shouldn't exceed 4,000 IU (100 mcg) of vitamin D a day from all sources unless a clinician advises more. Too much can cause nausea, weakness, confusion and kidney stones.
• Too much preformed vitamin A can cause headaches and blurred vision, and birth defects in pregnancy.
• High-dose vitamin E supplements may raise bleeding risk.

Medicines to check

• Warfarin: vitamin K and vitamin E both matter, and vitamin K intake should stay steady
• Statins, steroids, orlistat and thiazide diuretics (vitamin D notes)
• Vitamin A-based medicines such as acitretin

In Holitro: D Complex (5,000 IU per capsule)
