Vitamin D3 consumption

Asked for Male, 32 years

I got my Vitamin D3 tested and the result is in 9ng which I believe is too low. My thyroid doctor suggested to take an injection of 30K. But I have read that oral consumption in stages has better results rather than just getting an injection once. I need suggestions on what is better? If decide to go for the oral consumption what kind of supplements should I get?

Dear Patient,

There are many formulas available in the market like inj calcitriol etc. The pharmacist can guide you on any company he has available, just make sure to take the one you can consume orally rather than inject only.
You can go for either option. Both will give you the same dose of medication. You can take it in portions or as one single dose.
