Low vitamin d, depression

2017-11-26 16:31:06
Been feeling very low the last few weeks. Was told vitamin d supplementation might help. Was sold D-Rise 60000 IU (per capsule). Should I take this once a week?

Talk to your doctor as the dosage depends on your level of deficiency.  In normal course doctors prescribe to take weekly for couple of weeks and once a month for 12 months.  Your doctor will be right person to advise you.
