Overview
•The 50 mcg (2000 IU) dose of Vitamin D3 is well below the established adult tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 100 mcg (4000 IU) per day.
•Supplements providing vitamin D3 and calcium carbonate may interact with thiazide diuretics, cardiac glycosides (digoxin), or certain tetracycline/quinolone antibiotics.
•Generally very well tolerated at this dose, though excessive long-term vitamin D intake can lead to hypercalcemia, nausea, or renal complications.
•Calcium carbonate may cause mild gastrointestinal side effects such as constipation or mild bloating in sensitive individuals.
