I hope so because I have been prescribed the same dosage. I am 68 and have kidney disease and diabetes, and have been taking this dosage for about a year, with no adverse effects. I am aware of the concerns about too much vit. D, and have been sensitive to any suspected symptoms such as tingling in the mouth, nausea, abdominal pain.
