Variability between assay methods and between laboratories using the same methods may range from 10% to 20%, and classification of samples as deficient or nondeficient may vary by 4% to 32%, depending upon assay. 2

Treatment Risks Vitamin D + Calcium Renal Stones Seven trials reported on risk for kidney stones, 2 of which included treatment with vitamin D and calcium; none reported kidney stones in any participants.
