    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Clinical Toxicology

    Background:

    • Vitamin D is essential for bone health and calcium homeostasis.
    • Supplementation is common, but excessive intake can lead to toxicity.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of vitamin D intoxication are presented.
    • Patients received appropriate indications for vitamin D but incorrect dosages.
    • All patients experienced hypercalcemia due to vitamin D toxicity.

    Findings:

    • Vitamin D intoxication is a preventable iatrogenic condition.
    • Improper dosage, not the indication for treatment, was the cause of toxicity.
    • Patients recovered fully within days after supportive care.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of precise vitamin D dosage calculations.
  • Emphasizes the need for healthcare provider education on safe vitamin D prescribing.
  • Underscores the potential for serious adverse events from vitamin D overdose.
