I have emailed Crescent to ask if the other dosages are available.

Good Afternoon [helvella]

Thank you for your email.

I can confirm that we currently have stock of all strengths apart from the 12.5mg

How interesting. In recent months I have noticed more of my medication (not levothyroxine) is by Crescent. I had such a awful reaction with one that luckily I was able to avoid it since.
