I'd want to talk to my MD first before taking that much (125mcg / 5,000 IU) Vitamin D3.
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Vitamin D3 therapy (50,000-100,000 IU/week) was safe and effective when given for 12 months to reverse statin intolerance in patients with vitamin D deficiency. Serum vitamin D rarely exceeded 100 ng/mL, never reached toxic levels, and there were no significant change in serum calcium or eGFR.

Too much D3 can be toxic and I believe less than toxic numbers CAN cause calcium to build up and make painful kidney stones.

How much vitamin D should you take a day?
Bottom line: Vitamin D intake is recommended at 400–800 IU/day, or 10–20 micrograms. However, some studies suggest that a higher daily intake of 1000–4000 IU (25–100 micrograms) is needed to maintain optimal blood levels.Jun 4, 2017
