| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The aim of the present study is to assess the compliance of a once-a-month administration of vitamin D3 (D-CURE®) to a daily administration of a fixed-dose combination of vitamin D3 and calcium (STEOVIT FORTE®) during two periods of 6 months and to see their effect on the level of vitamin D. ;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): To compare the percentage of compliant volunteers between volunteers receiving the administration of a once-a-month administration of vitamin D3 (D-CURE®) and those receiving a daily administration of a fixed-dose combination of vitamin D3 and calcium (STEOVIT FORTE®).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: end of study | — |
