For reference, 5000 IU is 625% USDA DV. (Curiously, 5000 / 600 = 8.33, but 5000 IU bottles are labeled 625%.)

- raverbashing 6y agoOf course 5000 IU -> 125mcg. Usual doses sold on pharmacies: 5mcg to 25mcg. I believe the formulation as 625% makes sense as a weekly dosage or as a short term boost to raise levels. But no, please, let's create panic because people can't read labels.
