UMA ÚNICA GRANDE DOSE DE VITAMINA D PODE SER USADA COMO MEIO DE PREVENÇÃO E TRATAMENTO DA DOENÇA CORONAVIRUS 2019
A Single Large Dose of Vitamin D Could be Used as
a Means of Coronavirus Disease 2019 Prevention
and Treatment
“(…) Vitamin D Administration is Convenient and
Safe“
“(…) Vitamin D is a lipid-soluble vitamin, and can be administered
as a draught. From our clinical experience in patients with Vit D deficiency or insufficiency, a single dose of 300,000 IU (in one ampulla) is safe. Four weeks after the administration, the serum 25(OH)D concentration can be elevated to the level of about 60 ng/mL, and all the patients have normal blood calcium levels. Vit D supplementation is very safe and Vit D toxicity is a rare event caused by ingestion of excessively high
amounts of Vit D. Most studies in children and adults have suggested that the blood levels need to be above 150 ng/mL before there is any concern. Therefore, an upper level of 100 ng/mL provides a safety margin in reducing risk of hypercalcemia. [12] The cases of Vit D toxicity accompanied by various toxic symptoms have serum 25(OH)D concentrations ranging from 213 to >640 ng/mL (533 to >1600 nmol/L).[36] To ensure safety, testing the blood calcium and 25(OH) D levels two to four weeks after taking Vit D is needed, but in most cases it is not always necessary.
