A member asked:
If the level of my tsh is below of 0.05 do i have to reduce the dosage.i'm taking 150 mg now of levothyroxine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely yes,,: This is below normal TSH and the dose of levothyroxine appears very high. It'd be a great idea to see your doctor real soon for an exam and dose adjustment so it's done correctly. Best of luck.
