I'm curious if it's safe to take 60,000 IU of vitamin D every week. With the lockdown and winter coming, I'm not getting much sun exposure. Can you advise?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, taking 60,000 IU of vitamin D per week is generally safe for most people, especially if you're deficient, but it's important to follow your doctor's recommendation and monitor your levels. Since you're not getting enough sun exposure, this supplementation can help maintain optimal levels, but always keep track of any symptoms and consult your doctor regularly.

I'm in the process of applying for a visa and found out I need a medical certificate. They mentioned I have to be certified by a doctor to show I'm not suffering from any illness that could affect public health under the International Sanitary Act 2005. I'm really nervous about it and not sure what kind of diseases they're checking for. Can you help me understand what this is all about and what I should expect when getting this certificate?
visit a qualified healthcare provider, undergo the required tests, and ensure that the medical certificate reflects that you do not have any communicable diseases in accordance with the International Health Regulations (2005).
