It's possible to dose weekly and with the 7 day half life of Levo you may very well be fine. Or you could pop along to the local pharmacy where you are and explain the position, they may be able to sort out an emergency supply for you.

SeasideSusie is correct. As chemist may be able to sort out an emergency prescription for you. A friend got one via Boots.
