@prarysky Are you sure you need 45 mg and not 45 mcg? The smaller amount (mcg) is what is normally recommended to take with calcium. I take Life Extensions with 45 mcg of K2, it costs $11 for a 90 day supply. The pills are very small gel caps. The same company does sell one that has 45mg of K2 that is $28 for a one month supply (on Amazon). The reviews say the pills are not huge, and include photos of the pill size compared to a quarter. The pills are capsules with a power inside so you could open them to mix with food if you want to.

@daisy17 Thanks so much for this info! The person who mentioned the higher dosage found in Osteo K said it was 45 mg and not 45 mcg. Yes, that's a big dose especially when compared to what is found here in similar products. I think that's the dosage used in Japan where MK4 is prescribed for osteoporosis. Because it was such a high dosage, I thought the capsule/pill might be huge.
I've ordered from Life Extension in the past so will take a look at their K2 products. Your descriptions are very helpful to me!
