Your Vitamin D level is elevated, but the good thing is you’ve already stopped the supplement 👍 Most cases improve gradually once excess supplementation is discontinued. Proper evaluation of calcium levels, kidney function and symptoms is important now to ensure everything remains safe and under control. Please consult once so this can be monitored and guided appropriately.
YES ITS HIGH. STOP VITD3. TAKE PLENTY OF WATER N LIQUID ADD A LIL AMOUNT OF GHEE IN DIET SO VITD3 BIND WIT FAT N SLOWLY REDUCE.

First of all Vitamin D toxicity is a rare phenomenon.. stop the medication .. hydrate yourself atleast 3L/day.. watch out for symptoms .. if asymptomatic no need to worry.. get your levels checked after 3 weeks.. if symptomatic or having any problem please contact .. will guide you further
Accidental overdose of high-dose Vitamin D3 (60k IU) can lead to Vitamin D toxicity (hypervitaminosis D), where the main clinical concern is Hypercalcemia (excess calcium in the blood). Since Vitamin D is fat-soluble, it remains stored in your body for a long time even after you stop the medication. Excessive levels can lead to calcium buildup in your blood, potentially causing symptoms like nausea, weakness, and, in severe cases, kidney stones or vascular calcification. Getting your levels back into the safe range requires a strict temporary lifestyle and dietary adjustment."

Health Tips
Low-Calcium Diet: "For the next few weeks, avoid high-calcium foods like dairy products (milk, cheese, yogurt) and calcium-fortified cereals. This prevents adding more 'fuel' to the hypercalcemia."
Stop All Multivitamins: "Check the labels of any other supplements you are taking. Ensure none of them contain Vitamin D or Calcium."
Caution: "Do not restart any Vitamin D supplements until your levels have been re-tested and confirmed to be within the normal range by a doctor, which may take several months."
Red Flags: "Seek urgent medical attention if you experience extreme thirst, frequent urination, severe abdominal pain, confusion, or persistent vomiting."
Stop taking further doses of vit d. As raised levels could cause toxicity. Avoid any calcium supplements and calcrich diet. Have more water and consult a physician if you get any unusual symptoms
Good that you stopped. Now drink plenty of water, avoid calcium-rich foods/supplements, and cut out fortified foods temporarily. Watch for nausea, weakness, frequent urination or confusion — signs of hypercalcemia. Book a paid consult with me to check serum calcium, PTH & renal function and monitor till levels normalise.
