Typically, you should take the cholecalciferol sachet once a week for 8 weeks to quickly boost your levels. You can actually start your daily Shelcal (calcium and vitamin D3) tablet alongside it from the first week to support your bones, rather than waiting. This combined therapy is usually continued for 8 to 12 weeks, followed by a lower maintenance dose. Please consult your doctor to confirm your exact schedule and to recheck your levels after 3 months.
