• For Longer Life
• Special Purpose Formula
• High Potency Vitamin D

For those who need to take very high doses of vitamin D3 and are under a physician's supervision, Life Extension now makes available a 5,000-IU vitamin D3 supplement. Regular CBC/Chemistry blood tests are suggested when taking this 5,000-IU vitamin D supplement to guard against a very low risk of kidney toxicity or hypercalcemia (excess calcium in the blood).

Read the entire label and follow directions carefully prior to use.

Take one (1) capsule daily with a fat containing, low fiber meal, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.

Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place.

Caution: Individuals consuming more than 2,000 IU/day of vitamin D (from diet and supplements) should periodically obtain a serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D measurement. Do not exceed 10,000 IU per day unless recommended by your doctor. Vitamin D supplementation is not recommended for individuals with hypercalcemia (high blood calcium levels). People with kidney disease, certain medical conditions (such as hyperparathyroidism or sarcoidosis), and those who use cardiac glycosides (digoxin) or thiazide diuretics should consult a physician before using supplemental vitamin D.
