Interactions for Vitamin D
Possible Interactions with
Vitamin D
Overview
Isoniazid (INH), cholestyramine, antacids, calcium channel blockers,
anticonvulsants, and thiazide diuretics all interfere with vitamin D.
INH, a medication used to treat tuberculosis, may raise blood levels of this
vitamin.
Cholestyramine, a cholesterol-lowering medication, interferes with the
absorption of vitamin D (as well as other fat soluble vitamins).
Calcium-channel blockers (such as verapamil) that are used to treat high
blood pressure and heart conditions may interfere with the production of vitamin
D by the body. Phenobarbital, phenytoin, and other anticonvulsant medications
increase the body’s use of vitamin D.
