A member asked:
How much vitamin d i should take to raise my vitamin d from 19 to a healthy level? how long i need to supplement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
5000IU daily: at a minimum. Many physicians including myself would treat level of 19 with 50,000 units twice weekly for 2 months, followed by 5000 units daily indefinitely. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
