A member asked:

How do i get 80mcg of levelthyroxine? 75mcg isn't enough, and 87mcg (which i had to cut up from a larger dose) is too much. the tablets don't cut well

Something funny here: Hi. Having done this for a long time, I will say there is no one who is hyper on 87 mcg/d and hypo on 75 mcg/d. However, due to the long half-life of l-thyroxine, you can take different doses on different days, and your body will never know the difference. You could use 88 mcg 4 days/week, 75 mcg 2 days/week, & 50 mcg 1 day/week, and that would give you 79 mcg/day. But there's something funny here
