I'm wondering about how to take calcirol sachets for vitamin D. Is it better with hot or cold milk? Does it even make a difference in how effective it is? I'm just a bit concerned about getting it right.

You can take Calcirol sachet with either hot or cold milk. Dissolve the contents of the sachet in a glass of milk and consume it. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider for optimal benefits.
