Figure 2. Efficacy of Ergocalciferol Supplementation in Correcting vitamin D deficiency.

Figure 2

Weekly oral ergocalciferol (50,000 units) was given to sickle cell disease patients with VDDvitamin D deficiency for 12 weeks (N = 25), and 25-OHD levels were re-measured within 180 days (median 133 days, interquartile range 114 – 153 days) after starting supplementation. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to analyse the data (p < 0.001).
