Target Audience:
Vitamin D is a common supplement encountered on medication reviews; however, this supplement may need more scrutinizing than in the past. Conflicting evidence and recommendations regarding optimal Vitamin D levels in elderly patients can make supplementation selection and dosing challenging. This presentation will review the evidence and provide pharmacists with a better understanding of this commonly used vitamin supplement.

Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this Application-Based activity, participants should be able to:

• Identify patients who may be at risk for Vitamin D deficiency.
• Describe possible effects of Vitamin D levels outside optimal range.
• Discuss literature describing optimal Vitamin D levels in older adults.
• Select appropriate supplementation in patients for treatment of Vitamin D deficiency.
