Guest guest Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I have a patient with vitamin D 25-hydroxy of 4.4, despite several months of taking 4000 IU per day. For this type of deficiency, ASMBS recommends 50,000IU vitamin D2 orally or IM once/week x 8 weeks, then recheck levels. I am wondering why D2 instead of D3? Is 50,000 IU only available in D2? Just curious what any of you would recommend in this situation? Kirkpatrick, RD, LD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
