Special Import - Vitamin D3 250 mcg (10,000 IU)

Vitamin D3 250 Mcg (10,000 Iu)

Description:

Vitamin D3 250 mcg (10,000 iu) is a high‑potency vitamin D dietary supplement designed to support bone health, immune function, and overall wellness. It contains cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), the biologically active form of vitamin D that helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus efficiently. This product is classified as a supplement, not a medicine, and is typically used in adults under medical supervision to correct or prevent vitamin D deficiency, especially in individuals with limited sun exposure, malabsorption issues, or increased nutritional needs.

Indications:

• Prevention and treatment of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency (as diagnosed by a healthcare professional).
• Support for healthy bones and teeth by improving calcium and phosphorus absorption.
• Adjunct support in conditions associated with low bone density such as osteoporosis, osteopenia, and osteomalacia (as part of a comprehensive treatment plan).
• Support for normal immune system function and general health, particularly in people with limited sun exposure or darker skin tones.
• Support for muscle function and reduction of risk of falls related to muscle weakness in older adults (when used as advised by a physician).

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) – 250 mcg (10,000 iu) per serving.
• Other ingredients/excipients: Not specified by the manufacturer in the provided information.
• Concentration details beyond the stated 250 mcg (10,000 iu) of vitamin D3 are unavailable.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as directed by a healthcare professional, especially due to the high strength (10,000 iu).
• Typical adult dose for high‑potency vitamin D3 supplements is often one serving (10,000 iu) daily or less frequently (e.g., every other day or weekly), depending on blood vitamin D levels and medical advice. Exact regimen must be determined by your doctor.
• Take with a main meal, preferably one containing some fat, to enhance absorption of vitamin D3.
• Swallow the tablet/capsule/softgel whole with a glass of water. Do not chew or crush unless your pharmacist advises otherwise. (Exact dosage form is not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.).)
• Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of use prescribed by your healthcare provider, as excessive vitamin D intake can lead to toxicity.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus, supporting strong bones and teeth.
• Supports immune system function, helping the body’s natural defenses work effectively.
• Contributes to normal muscle function, which may help reduce the risk of falls in older adults when used appropriately.
• Supports overall health and wellness in individuals with low sun exposure, darker skin, or dietary insufficiency of vitamin D.

• Use with caution in patients with kidney disease, kidney stones, sarcoidosis or other granulomatous diseases, hyperparathyroidism, or conditions associated with high calcium levels. Regular monitoring of blood calcium and vitamin D levels may be required.
