I'm concerned about my vitamin D levels being low, and my doctor suggested I take UPRISE D3 60K once a week for the next 10 weeks. I was wondering if I can also take SevenSeas Cod Liver Oil capsules along with it? And if so, is it safe to take one capsule three times a day after meals?

Uprise D3 60k once a week is good. You can take cod liver oil along with that no problems but not three times a day. Only once a day after food is enough. Also you need to drink one glass of milk every night before bed.
