Not in the UK anyway, ... You may be able to buy vitamin D over the counter at high concentrations as a rat poison. I'm not suggesting that as a source- just something to think about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitamin D or D1 is the other two mixed together; this is the original compound but it was discovered that it is two compounds.
