Why wouldn't you take a lower dosage? First, I am not a doctor or expert in human biology so this is only my first hand experience. I responded to Bob because he apparently already has 5000 IU Vitamin D in hand. This is a high dosage, enough so that my blood tests showed my D levels were too high when I took that dosage. My doctor told me to stop taking it, but I reduced my dosage instead of stopping D. I take 2000 IU (50 mcg) softgels. Twice a day in winter because there is little sun exposure in Oregon during the rainy season. I take one a day for about half the year (the good part in Oregon) - when I spend time in the garden and on the tennis courts, etc. Supplements which are an oil are in a fat form. I have read that fats are absorbed in body fat tissue and slowly released, so one can mitigate the high dosage by taking every other day. Not sure that works well if you try once of twice a week because the levels in your body probably swing a lot. Also not sure what slowly released means in terms of how much and how long. Might be good questions for your next doctor visit. You should get better information there instead of on a stock message board.
