Administer Phytonadione Injectable Emulsion subcutaneously whenever feasible. Avoid the intravenous and intramuscular routes of administration unless the subcutaneous route is not feasible and the serious risk is justified [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.1)]. 5.3 Cutaneous Reactions Parenteral administration of vitamin K replacements (including Phytonadione Injectable Emulsion) may cause cutaneous reactions.

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following serious adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: โ€ข Hypersensitivity Reactions [see WARNING AND PRECAUTIONS (5.1)] โ€ข Cutaneous Reactions [see WARNING AND PRECAUTIONS (5.3)] 6.1 Clinical Trials and Post-Marketing Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

Hepatobiliary Disorders: Hyperbilirubinemia Immune System Disorders: Fatal hypersensitivity reactions, anaphylactic reactions. Neurologic: Dysgeusia, dizziness. Pulmonary: Dyspnea.
