In a recent study, 51 HIV-infected youths, with baseline serum 25(OH)D concentrations ≤30 ng/mL, were enrolled and treated by adding three different Vit D doses of 18,000 IU, 60,000 IU and 120,000 IU monthly on a combination antiretroviral therapy. These data suggested that high-dose Vit D supplementation may attenuate immune activation and exhaustion and serve as adjuvant therapy to antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected people.
