Hi and welcome to Healthcare magic.Thank you for the query.
There is no need to have it intravenously unless in some very rare cases where prompt vitamin D correction is required. So you should continue with oral intake if you ask me. And if there will be symptoms, you can always check vitamin d levels in your blood. Intravenous injections may have some side effects so it would be better to avoid it.
Wish you good health. Regards
