Called doctors office to get blood results for vitamins women on phone said vitd is low an folate (folic acid) is high how much of a sup should i take for vitd?

How low was level?: I recommend Vitamin D supplementation based on each patient's blood level. If it is very low, I prescribe a twice weekly, prescription strength form. For "sorta" low, I it prescribe weekly. A little low, I recommend an over-the-counter form of Vitamin D taken daily.
