Sometimes, vitamin D levels may remain low even after an injection if there is inadequate sunlight exposure, poor dietary intake, or poor absorption. Your doctor may recommend additional vitamin D3 supplements, regular safe exposure to sunlight, and foods rich in vitamin D, such as fortified milk, eggs, and fish. It is best to repeat the blood test and follow your doctor?s advice on the right dose and duration of treatment.
