3 weeks but...: I know nothing about Medication lists, but it is good to recheck thyroid levels about 3 weeks after changing dose. Please ask to check Free T3 as well as T4 and TSH. I advise increasing dose until TSH below 2 and Free T3 in upper half of normal range, which may require taking a med with T3, See https://tinyurl.com/ybf4svoz and https://tinyurl.com/y7jnpftd
