50,000 units not 10,000.

From the research I've done it appears D2 is not recommended, only D3. However, in this country we don't have prescription therapy D3. Do you think taking this will increase my levels so that I can then go on a maintenance dose of 2,000 units daily of D3? He's going to retest after I complete the 5 weeks. For several years I've taken Centrum Silver Utlra Womens which contain calcium & D in the morning and Caltrate 600 plus D in the evening so I was surprised the level was so low.
Thank you,
Pat
