Indications
Vitamin D is used to treat and prevent bone disorders (such as rickets, osteomalacia).
Vitamin D with calcium is used to treat or prevent bone loss (osteoporosis). Vitamin D is also used with other medications to treat low levels of calcium or phosphate caused by certain disorders (such as hypoparathyroidism, pseudohypoparathyroidism, familial hypophosphatemia). It may be used in kidney disease to keep calcium levels normal and allow normal bone growth. Vitamin D drops (or other supplements) are given to breast-fed infants because breast milk usually has low levels of vitamin D.
                                                                                                                                           (Drug Facts)
 
Contraindications:
Vitamin D supplementation is contraindicated in situations of hypercalcaemia such as with sarcoidosis, metastatic bone disease, and conditions that have disordered vitamin D metabolism in activated macrophages such as Crohn's disease (active phase). Unusual syndromes in children,. Such as William's syndrome, may also need to be monitored as day have a propensity to develop high 25(OH) D values as a result of the ultraviolet waves used in the artificial tanning process, especially when consuming added vitamin D supplementation. 
Some products that may interact with this drug include: phosphate binders.
Check the labels on all your prescription and nonprescription/herbal products (such as antacids, laxatives, vitamins) because they may contain calcium, magnesium, phosphate, or vitamin D. Vitamin D is very similar to calcitriol. Do not use medications containing calcitriol while using vitamin D.
