What is considerd a high dose of levothyroxine? i'm at 75mcg and just got moved to 100mcg
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Moderate : The pill strength of levothyroxine goes from25 mcg to 200mcg. However we do have patients that need more. We don't so much view a dose as high or low rather what your particular body needs to restore normal levels. These levels and doses for some remain constant and for others change at times upward and downward.
