Question: what is the maximum amount of vitamin d you can take?
Answer: Although 4,000 IU (250 mcg) is set as the maximum amount of vitamin D you can take safely, several studies have shown that taking up to 10,000 IU (250 mcg) daily won't cause side effects ( 37 , 38 ). That said, taking more than 4,000 IU may provide no extra benefit.
