A member asked:

How long does it take to replace vitamin d?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vit D dose: It depends on the dose and severity of deficit. Many people have low vit d levels. One way to replace is a fairly high dose, 50, 000 u, once per week. This usually gets the blood level normal after about 6 weeks.
