Hi,I've been on Levo for 2 years and normally take Mercury Pharma brand of 75mg per day..4 weeks ago my pharmacy didn't have stock of 25 and 50 in MP so was given 50 of Accord and 25 MP...4 weeks on and my symptoms from 2 years ago have slowly started to return..can I take 3 of the 25 MP and will this help me return to normal funcunality? (having trouble walking and constant muscle pain)Thank you

can I take 3 of the 25 MP

Yes. I think the only question will be whether you have enough of them to continue doing so. You may need to ask your GP to issue a new prescription to cover this.
