I take levothyroxine dosage of 125 & 150 on alternate days as this is the correct dosage for me. I’m more than half way through a box never having had this brand before, & I noticed that the pill coming out of the blister pack for the 50’s has the marking C on them. Normally my 50’s & 25’s have the actual number on them & C is on the 100’s being the Roman numeral for 100. Is this normal for this brand, or have they mispackaged 100’s into the 50’s blister packs. The 25’s say 25.

Look at the other side!

T | A

or

T C

Both 50 and 100 have a C on the other side. They are Accord product.

The 25 are Teva product and have 25 on one side and a score on the other.

My UK medicines document has these details in it:

helvella's medicines documents (UK and Rest of the World) can be found here:

helvella - Thyroid Hormone Medicines

helvella has created, and tries to maintain, documents containing details of all thyroid hormone medicines in the UK and, in less detail, many others around the world. There is now a specific world desiccated thyroid document.

I highly recommend viewing on a computer screen, or a decent sized tablet, rather than a phone. Even I find it less than satisfactory trying to view them on my phone.

helvella - Thyroid Hormone Medicines - UK

The UK document contains up-to-date versions of the Summary Matrixes for levothyroxine tablets, oral solutions and also liothyronine available in the UK. Includes injectables and descriptions of tablet markings which allow identification. Latest updates include all declared ingredients for all UK products and links to Patient Information Leaflets, Dictionary of Medicines and Devices (dm+d), etc. PLUS how to write prescriptions in Appendix F.

Also includes links for anti-thyroid medicines (but not product details).
