Hi Johnny,
I haven't taken calcitriol myself and don't know for sure whether or not the increased depression that you're noticing now might somehow reverse itself once you've been taking calcitriol for longer. It does seem possible that that might happen, but then again, I don't know what kinds of response patterns people notice when they take calcitriol.
I was curious, though, as to why your doctor has you taking calcitriol for your vitamin D deficiency (as opposed to, say, vitamin D3). And what does your doctor plan to do with you after your eight-week trial with calcitriol ends? Will you then go on to take vitamin D3?
At any rate, I hope that the worsening of your depression that you've noticed will turn out to be temporary and that you'll ultimately be helped by your treatment regimen. Good luck with everything.
