Cholecalciferol which is an inactive, unhydroxylated form of vitamin D3)
Calcifediol (also called 25-hydroxyvitamin D3), which is the form measured in the blood to assess vitamin D status
Calcitriol (also called 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3), which is the active form of D3
OK, so what is pediatrician to do? I always order 25, hydroxyvitamin D on my patients to assess their levels of Vitamin D. I have been told not to order the 1, 25.
I guess this is like T3, Reverses T3, T4, FT4, etc.
