IU to mg/mcg - vitamin A, D & E

Hello,

Has anyone implemented strategies to adapt to the labeling transition to mg and mcg from International Units for vitamin A, D and E? For example, have you done education or made changes in your EHR? We recently started getting cholecalciferol with labeling in the new format. Thank you! ---Jeff
