Levo dosing

[ILR2019]

I have managed to source my own Levothyroxine and intend to reinstate my dose of 125mcg per day (which had been reduced to 100/125mcg alternate days). I have only managed to obtain 50mcg tablets. What is the best way to dose? (ie; 150/100mcg alternate days or cut the tablet in half).

or does it even matter

Entirely personal choice. My body doesn't like different doses on different days so I cut tablets. Basic pill cutter does the job.

Me too .. i prefer to take the same each day, even though theoretically it shouldn't make any difference with Levo

Less ladylike solution though... i bite it in half with my front teeth and put the remaining half back in the foil strip and put the foil back over it so it doesn't fall out.

Got fed up of walking to the kitchen and chopping them up every morning.

Off topic but as you are a lady by definition everything you do is lady like.

#end of feminist outburst. 😉

Feminist's usually fall out with me . I won't fit in their box. I prefer to just be me

[Hidden in reply to tattybogle]

Fair enough!

Ah thank you Lalatoot and tattybogle . I just wanted to double check as I wasn't sure if there would be an issue mainly with halving a tablet.
