3. How to Take Vitamin D3 NM
Follow the administration instructions for this medication exactly as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.
The dose should be individualized based on the degree of vitamin D supplementation needed.
The patient's dietary habits should be carefully evaluated, and the vitamin D content of certain foods should be taken into account.
Use in Adults
Medical supervision is necessary, as dosage requirements may vary depending on the patient's response.
Initiation of Vitamin D Deficiency Treatment in Adults:
1 capsule of 20,000 IU/week for up to 4-5 weeks.
1 capsule of 25,000 IU/week for up to 4 weeks.
After the first month, the possibility of applying a lower maintenance dose should be considered, based on desirable serum levels of 25-hydroxycolecalciferol (25(OH)D), the severity of the disease, and the patient's response to treatment.
Alternatively, national dosage recommendations for the treatment of vitamin D deficiency can be followed. The duration of use is usually limited to the first month of treatment, as decided by the doctor.
Method of Administration
The capsules should be swallowed whole (without chewing) with water.
If You Take More VitaminaD3NM Than You Should
If you have taken this medication more than you should, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately. A daily intake of 2 capsules of Vitamin D3 NM 25,000 IU for a period of 6 months is generally considered toxic for a normal individual.
However, lower doses may constitute an overdose, especially in children, who are one of the main risk groups. An excess of vitamin D causes an alteration of the calcium cycle in the body. The following symptoms may be experienced: weakness, fatigue, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, excessive urination, urinary calcium, dry mouth, nocturia, proteinuria, intense thirst, loss of appetite, dizziness.
In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, go to a medical center or call the Toxicology Information Service (Tel. 91 562 04 20), indicating the medication and the amount ingested.
