"Just to clarify vitamin D, and the multitude of other "supplements" available are NOT REGISTERED PHARMACEUTICALS. They are REQUIRED BY LAW to be labeled with a DISCLAIMER--"This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease." "
To further clarify and set the record straight:Yes, vitamin D is a supplement.
Vitamin D is also an FDA approved drug.
When prescribed and used in a prescription dose or in a combination medication (with a prescription medication), it is an FDA approved drug. In addition, active metabolites of vitamin D, vitamin D analogues as well as some vitamin D dosage forms are FDA approved prescription drugs.
Regarding the rest of your comments: Again, in this case, we are not talking about vitamin D as a "supplement", per se; we are talking about vitamin D as a medicament. Additionally, I'm sure that in any RCT, at the minimum, USP Verified (FDA regulated) vitamin D would be used.
