I would recommend you to check your vitamin D levels first and then if the deficiency is confirmed let's take vitamin D supplements. Because vitamin D can cause renal toxicity.
If confirmed deficiency weekly dose of
VITAMIN D 60000(Uprise) for 6-8 weeks
Or
Daily dose of
Calcium with vitamin D 3( Shelcal) for around 3 months
Can be used

Take Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) — 60,000 IU once weekly for 6–8 weeks after meals, then 1,000–2,000 IU daily for maintenance. It helps energy, bone, and mood. Choose any good brand (e.g., D-Rise, Uprise-D3, or Tayo-60K).
Kindly consult via practo. Thank you.
