How to take O.n.w D3 Capsule

Capsule for oral use. Take as prescribed by the doctor; commonly taken once weekly or once monthly depending on strength and deficiency status. Swallow whole with water, preferably after food (fat-containing meal improves absorption). Do not exceed the recommended dose.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
