Re: Materna Vit Deficiency and AutismFrom: Dr Elrod (dr99645@yahoo.com)Sat Apr 25 00:22:04 2009
The local fp would do 50k iu daily for three months recheck the level and then do 10k per day or 50k twice per week. Sent from my iPhone On Apr 24, 2009, at 6:36 PM, garrys@mindspring.com (Garry E.

Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks, Garry At Fri, 24 Apr 2009, Glen Elrod wrote: I didn't see the ad, but I have been checking Vit D levels through Quest. All my pregnant patients have been either below normal or very low normal range. I use a product called Pure Encapsulations brand Vit D3 and treat with 10,000 IU daily. we had a discussion here about Vit D not too long ago, so I haven't had a chance to recheck anyone after supplements, but I got the formuation and dose from a local FP that has and sees levels in the upper level of the normal range after treatment.

Emphasis on testing, supplementing and medico-legal risk perspectives conclude the posting. Are members screening, and supplementing (up to 7000 IU q day discussed), commonly antenatally? Interesting to know whether a servicing lab, a testing kit or supplement manufacturer, or an anonymous but previously burned practitioner, or a good samaritan legal professional, etc. is the sponsor of the notice...comments welcome.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
