    Default Vitamin D3 AND D2: Which one is it?

    Can anyone please tell me what markings or color Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is? I picked up a prescription that says 50,000IU but I think that dosage belongs to Vitamin D2!

    I am interested in markings/color for Vitamin D3 and Vitamin D2.

    Thank you so much!

    It would help if you gave the imprint of the D3, most of the databases don't have a reverse look up. I did find this which is 70mcg.

    Maybe this will help too, no imprints but unit strengths, etc.

    Default Vitamin D2 vs. D3

    I found the pill id number: PA140 which identifies it as ergocalciferol (D2).
    The script was supposed to be D3. Thanks for your help.
