Carbimazole

[Valarian]

My recent prescription was for 15mg tablets, which I think is something new.

They look very similar to the salmon-coloured 20 mg tablets, so if you are taking 15 or 30 mg/day, best check what you’ve been given.

Ooh i didn't think you could get 15mgs in a whole tablet!! Im on half a 5mgs but yes good advice.😊

It must be new as mine have always been 20,10 or 5 and have had to take a combination🤔

I’ve never even seen 10mg ! Should save a lot of faff, and may in some cases encourage a more gradual reduction

Think I got it wrong I took 2 fives 🙄😂

mabe - but according to the BNF link posted by Maisiegray, there are now 10mg tabs too!
