Contact prescriber: Depends on the normal range for the lab where the blood was tested. Drug levels are obtained to be sure one is in a therapeutic range, i.E, that the patient is not underdosed or overdosed, that the prescribed amount is good for that patient. Review the numbers with the prescribing doctor. He should be willing to review that and any benefits/risks with you. Good question.
