My doctor has suggested me to take calcirol sachets with milk, as my vitamin d level is very low tell me weather it is suitable for vegetarians or not?

It should work: But it is a very high dose of vitamin d3 and will need to be decreased down to replacement levels after your level normalizes. Won't be a problem for any type of dietary preference.
