Levothyroxine 100 microgram - ONE EVERY DAY

Levothyroxine 25 microgram - ONE ALTERNATE DAYS

I have been one the same dose for over 10 years. Many symptoms have improved except for tiredness. I think tiredness might have even got worse.

I would have thought that having Hashimoto’s the dose would have changed.

Is it a high dose that I’m on?

Sheffield36,

No, your dose averages out to 112.5mcg which is not a high dose. If you post your recent thyroid results and ranges we can advise whether you are optimally dosed.
