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 planning to take albendazole tablets and I'm wondering if there's anything specific I should know about how to take them. Is it true that I need to wait two weeks between doses, and should I really be taking them with warm sweet milk before bed? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.
Tablet alben dazzle is for worm infestation. If you have evidence of infection confirmed then take one tablet now and repeat after two weeks. If you are staying with family or sharing space or things with others, get everyone with weight >20 kg to take the stat dose. Best taken 2hours after food at night. What ever is your choice, milk water or juice.
