Increase dose?

[lisan1]

Latest results on 50mcg levo are

Tsh 2.8 (0.35-5.5)

Ft4 13.6 (10-19.8)

Increase to 75mcg every day or every other day?

Lisan1,

FT4 is low in range so I would try 75mcg daily.

Thank you! Is there risk of going into hyper state so you think (of I take 75mcg each day) ?

Lisan1,

If you mean is there a chance that TSH may become suppressed the answer is yes. Suppressed TSH doesn't mean you are over medicated though as long as FT4 remains within range. I think there is little likelihood of FT4 going any where near the top of range on 75mcg.

You can, of course, try 50/75mcg alternate days if you are worried about becoming over medicated.
