Vitamin D dosage

2020-12-20 03:31:27
Hello doctor, I recovered Covid 20 days back. Symptoms persisting are abnormal pulse rate (sometimes) for which I'm taking Prolomet XL 12.5 once a day after breakfast & physical weakness. I have no other medical issue. Recent blood test diagnosed me with low Vitamin D (8.6) for which I was suggested Lumia 60K once a week. I had two questions: 1) Can Vit D 60k can be taken when I'm facing abnormal pulse sometimes and taking beta blocker for that? 2) If yes, when to take Lumia 60k tab in empty stomach or with breakfast? Please help me out.

I would suggest once a week for 4 wks, Then once in 15 days for 4 wks, Then once s month for 2 months. Preferably after food at bedtime. The whole course runs for 3 months. Then after a gap of 1 month please do a Blood Vit D-3 test. If still low then take another course for 3 months in the above dosage schedule. If normal or nearing normal then take the medicine once in a month continuously for 6 months.
