See pcp: Vitamin a is stored in the body and can be toxic at too high a level. See your pcp and determine if supplementation needed and if so, how much.

NO: This is a very high dose. Why would you consider taking that dose? Liver damage may occur. The benefit of such a high dose must exceed the risk or it makes no sense to take it.
