Is 5000 IU's of Vitamin D Safe?

I am thinking about increasing my dosage of vitamin d to 5,000 iu daily. I understand that blood levels rise when 5,000 iu is consumed. Should I go for it?


Thank you.

Country Life Vitamin D3 5000 IU softgel

by Heather
(Madison)

My D level is extremely low, 22.4 (tested in Nov 2009)
My doctor prescribed me vitamin D2 50000 IU once a week, disagreed with me that D3 is better than D2, and explained to me that D3 does not absorb as well as D2. I'm switching to D3 regardless of what my doctor says and would like your opinion on Country Life Vit D3 5000 IU softgel.

Base on my D level how many Country Life Vitamin D3 5000 IU softgel can I take per day.

Thanks.
