What are the potential side effects of taking four tablets of LUMIA 60K over two days instead of the prescribed once-a-week dose, and does this require a hospital visit?
Taking four tablets of Lumia 60K (cholecalciferol) over two days is a high dose, but please be reassured that this is very unlikely to cause serious harm or require a hospital visit. Vitamin D toxicity typically occurs only after prolonged, high daily intake. You might experience mild, temporary symptoms like slight nausea, a headache, or mild stomach upset. To help your body process this, drink plenty of water and temporarily skip your next weekly doses. It is best to contact your doctor to adjust your schedule. Only seek emergency care if you experience severe symptoms like persistent vomiting, extreme thirst, or confusion.
