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.
