Years ago I was prescribed vitamin D3 due to deficiency. I’ve been taking 3 800 unit capsules a week so 60 mcg.I now have to buy it myself (perfectly happy to) but getting confused by the range.
Are there any doctors/pharmacists that can tell me if d3 is better than d2 and about dosage - I’ve seen 25 units up to 2000 and the ones with calcium. Are tablets better than capsules or are they just different?
Local (chain) pharmacy felt like they were just trying to sell most expensive. I’m definitely not taking up a doctor appointment to ask so any help appreciated.
