I take prescription D (50,000 once a week). I’ve taken it for 4 weeks at a time 3 times over the last year, and every time I stop (per the doctor’s orders to check my levels), it drops very low. My last 2 tests had my level at 10 and 7, and the doctor wants me at 45-50. The low levels were in the summer, and I garden a lot, ride bikes and walk, so am outside a good bit. I also take Calcium and D twice a day. I have osteopenia and osteoarthritis, and my doctors (orthopaedist, rheumatologist and internist) are adamant i take calcium and D. I also have practically nonexistent levels of B, so get an injection once a month and take oral drops a couple of times a week.
