Just wondered if any of you have difficulty getting the small 25mcg tab down? I drink lots of water and it is still there, I can feel it just at the top of my oesophageal tract rather than where it should be in my gut in order to get absorbed. This makes me question whether I'm getting my full dose of thyroid hormone.

I never swallow levo tablets whole, but crunch them up first. They don't have an unpleasant taste (not to me anyway )
Or, you can apparently dissolve them in some water first. Instructions for this should be on the PIL inside the box.
