Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Could The Elevation Of Liver Enzymes Be Due To Vitamin D Supplement?
I take 50,000 of vitamin D 3 times a month. My level was still low so my Dr. told me to take 1000 of vitaminD everyday along with the 50,000 3 times a month. My level shot up to 53. However my liver enzymes were elevated. Could that come from the vitamin D.? It was never elevated from taking the RX 50,000 3 times a month . Since I have added the additional over the counter vitamin D it is.
No, there is no relation between vitamin D and your liver enzymes, you may need to do some more investigations like ultrasound abdomen to know the cause of this elevation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Salah Saad Shoman, Internal Medicine Specialist
