I'm 20 and recently found out I have a vitamin D deficiency. Is it okay if I take Nurokind D3 tablets every day?
What is your vitamin D3 levels? Based on the amount of deficiency you can take injection. Uprise D3 6L once a week. This will be cheaper and faster than oral medications. If you do not want to take injection, then yes you can take neurokind D3 once a day for a month. Or you can take D3 must 60k once a week for 3 months.
