> 40 000 IU a week.
I thought that's what you meant!
Usually, people take that dose for about 3 months and then reduce to a maintenance dose eg. 800-1000 units per day, or (alternatively) 20 000 units every 2 weeks. I wouldn't personally want to continue 40 000 units per week beyond ~3 months without a further blood test. If you're still deficient you can continue for longer, until the deficiency has been fully treated. If your vitamin D level is now normal, reduce to a maintenance dose.
