Prescription D are typically D2 in oil... not the best one for us. 

I use OTC D3 dry . made by Biotech. 100 capsules each 50,000 IU dry D3 are ~$20. I take that 1-2 times a week. for me - itis cheaper than scropt and better. My D is 60-100....

Are they like capsules that can be opened with powder, or little cap style pills?  My doc likes it if I can open capsules and put the powder into yogurt or something.  Then i'm not waiting for the capsule to break down.

The Dry D3 are a very small capsules that can be opened. But they are so small and they disolve very fast (tested them in bit of water) that IMO - can be taken whole. 

I have no problem with small pills or capsule, small or big. But coated piles, or big pills is still huge issue for me.

Large pills are extremely tough for me, too.  Nothing changed after revision.  If I have to do oral D I will check them out.  Thank you.
