You can avoid toxicity by serial blood testing
Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for your revert.
You are right its a high dose and can lead to toxic effects but there are 2-3 strategies which we doctors believ in when it is bout correcting a deficiency. Few prefer correcting deficiency at the earliest followed by maintenance doses while others prefer building deficiency over a time . Your doctor might be going for first.I will suggest you to monitor levels using frequent blood testing which will keep you aware about toxicity.I will further suggest you to consult with your doctor one more time about the treatment as you are not convinced with his treatment.
