We've all been advised to take this in the winter so I did. The other day I realised that
a) I'd forgotten it for several days
b) the awful dry mouth I've had for months was very much better.
Googled Vitamin D and read that a deficiency can cause a dry mouth! Nothing about a supplement causing the same thing.
Obviously I've ditched the tablets but wonder whether anyone else has had a very dry mouth, lips, tongue from taking a recommended vitamin?

Vitamin D comes as chalky tablets, or capsules with peanut oil, or some other allergen

It may worth trying different makes

I like the tiny soft capsules from Bio-Tech which claim to be hypo-allergenic

I buy these from GreenVits on Amazon UK
