I am suffering from vitamin D deficiency, with a level of 8.83 ng/mL. I have been taking D3 Must 60K chewable tablets (1 tablet weekly) from Mankind Pharma and have taken 4 tablets over the past month. Is this safe? If not, what is the alternative and the proper dosage for my level of deficiency? If it is safe, how much longer should I continue this regimen, or should I adjust the frequency (for example, one tablet monthly)? I have attached my report for reference and would like guidance on the correct dosage based on my deficiency.

A weekly dose of D3 60,000 IU for 8 weeks is common for this level, followed by monthly maintenance. Your current dose is okay. Continue for 2 more months and retest.

I have tested my Vitamin D level at 120 and Vitamin B12 at 485. Could you please tell me what the healthy ranges are for these vitamins, and how I can maintain or improve my levels?

My blood report shows a very low total vitamin D level of 6.53. My doctor advised me to take Vitamin D3 Uprise once a week. She said to take it in the morning, but I am not sure if it should be on an empty stomach or after breakfast. Can you guide me?
