Obviously, if you're still deficient you'll need to continue with the high dose for a while. If not, you can reduce. Recommendations vary, but I'd suggest a daily maintenance dose of at least 1000 units but less than 5000 units, maybe go for 2000 units - this dose is generally suitable for people who have a history of deficiency which has now been treated. If you'd prefer to use the high dose capsules rather than daily dosing, 20 000 units every 2 weeks would probably be suitable.
