Abstract

Acute vitamin D intoxication from an unknown source occurred in a family consisting of a grandmother, mother, father and four children aged 14, 11, 8 and 1 1/2 years old. The clinical presentation and response to treatment (which included a diphosphonate preparation and cholestyramine) are described.
