Is taking 5000 iu of vitamin d3 too much to take on a daily basis? i don't get out much so thought this might be a good dose.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably fine: 5000 iu of vitamin d is likely fine, especially in winter. Ask your physician to check your 25-oh vit d level to see where you stand, and what you need. Most people need 2000-5000iu in winter.
