Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

We compare the effect of HyD (25-hydroxyvitamin D) and vitamin D3 in their effect on 25-hydroxyvitamin D plasma levels over a course of 4 month. This is a pharmacokinetic study including 35 postmenopausal women.

* Trial with medicinal product

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We include postmenopausal women age 50 to 75, race/ethnicity: Caucasian, serum 25(OH)D at baseline between 20 to 60 nmol/l, body mass index: \< 30 kg/m2

to compare 25(OH)D and vitamin D3 in equimolar doses over a 4 month pharmacokinetic trial. The dosing arms are daily, weekly, and bolus
