How does Vitamin K1 help in cases of rodenticide poisoning?

  1. By inducing vomiting

  2. By neutralizing the poison directly

  3. By restoring normal blood clotting ability

  4. By acting as an antihistamine

The correct answer is: By restoring normal blood clotting ability

Vitamin K1 helps in cases of rodenticide poisoning by restoring normal blood clotting ability. Vitamin K is essential for the production of certain clotting factors in the blood. Rodenticides interfere with the body's ability to produce these clotting factors, leading to abnormal bleeding and potentially life-threatening situations. By restoring the body's normal clotting ability, Vitamin K1 can help to counteract the effects of the poison and prevent excessive bleeding. Options A (inducing vomiting) and B (neutralizing the poison directly) may help in other cases of poisoning, but they do not specifically address the issue of blood clotting. Option D (acting as an antihistamine) is not relevant to rodenticide poisoning. Therefore, the most correct answer is C.
