For many other medications, that might have been a problem, but for Vitamin D, it's not a big deal. The total amount that you took was 600,000 IU's. This is the amount that doctors often give INFANTS with rickets and will give to the elderly in nursing homes once a year as a matter of routine. If you were already low, this is not going to be a problem in the slightest. See my page on http:/­/­www.easy-immune-health.com/­Overdose-on-Vitamin-D.html

There is really no reason to even contact your doctor unless you are having problems, other than to just get your level checked when you were normally scheduled to have it rechecked. Usually that is two to three months after you were given your prescription.

Hello, Susan! How are you?

Please alert your doctor. Generally, it's not a serious issue, because it's been found that you can't really overdose on Vitamin D, however, it could throw off some lab tests. For instance, you may show elevated calcium levels, which can signify cancer in some people, but yours may just be due to the excess amounts of vitamin D.

Your doctor may also want you to take a break from it, for awhile, and provide you with a new prescription to continue it at a later time.

The FDA classifies this as a supplement and its most common side effect is constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
