Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of daily versus fortnightly oral vitamin D treatments for children (ages 1-10) with symptoms of vitamin D deficiency.
- Eighty children were randomly assigned to receive either 4000 IU of vitamin D daily or 60,000 IU every two weeks, along with daily calcium supplements, for 12 weeks.
- Both treatment groups showed significant improvements in serum calcium and phosphate levels, with no major differences between them; however, some children experienced mild hypercalcemia, which resolved on its own.
