For hypovitaminosis D, I would suggest : 1. Injection Arachitol(6 Lacs units) stat intramuscularly. 2. Cap Dsol 60k weekly once for 8 weeks. 3. Cold liver oil capsules once daily(non veg) Check vitamin D levels  after 1month. You can take Cap Evion (vit E) along for 1 month.

Greetings,   sorry about the deficiency.
Next Steps
it takes atleast a month or so to see results.  image if we sow seeds do we get a tree in a week?  no right! same way body needs to absorb vitamin d which for some is slow and for others it's fast.  be assured will get to normal level in atleast a month or so.  eat avocado and get some sun exposure to make it faster l.
Health Tips
if any doubts do let me know.
