Most people do not commonly experience side effects with vitamin D, unless too much is taken.<\/p>\n
Some side effects of taking too much vitamin D include weakness, fatigue, sleepiness, headache, loss of appetite, dry mouth, metallic taste, nausea, vomiting, and others.<\/p>\n
Taking vitamin D for long periods of time in higher doses is POSSIBLY UNSAFE and may cause excessively high levels of calcium in the blood. However, much higher doses are often needed for the short-term treatment of vitamin D deficiency. This type of treatment should be done under the supervision of a healthcare provider.<\/p>\n
Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Vitamin D is LIKELY SAFE during pregnancy and breast-feeding, but do not use higher doses. Vitamin D is POSSIBLY UNSAFE when used in higher amounts during pregnancy or while breast-feeding. Using higher doses might cause serious harm to the infant.<\/p>\n
Kidney disease: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels and increase the risk of \u201chardening of the arteries\u201d in people with serious kidney disease.<\/p>\n
High levels of calcium in the blood: Taking vitamin D could make this condition worse.<\/p>\n
\u201cHardening of the arteries\u201d (atherosclerosis): Taking vitamin D could make this condition worse, especially in people with kidney disease.<\/p>\n
Sarcoidosis: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with sarcoidosis. This could lead to kidney stones and other problems. Use vitamin D cautiously.<\/p>\n
Histoplasmosis: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with histoplasmosis. This could lead to kidney stones and other problems. Use vitamin D cautiously.<\/p>\n
Over-active parathyroid gland (hyperparathyroidism): Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with hyperparathyroidism. Use vitamin D cautiously.<\/p>\n
Lymphoma: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with lymphoma. This could lead to kidney stones and other problems. Use vitamin D cautiously.<\/p>\n
Tuberculosis: Vitamin D might increase calcium levels in people with tuberculosis. This might result in complications such as kidney stones.<\/p>\n
In the end, I would say one must take vitamin d supplements under the supervision of doctor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
