No need to reduce do: You may have to stop for few days and start on a lower dose.Your blood test suggest the dose was probably higher than you really need.But you should discuss your treatment and dosage and stopping etc.With your prescribing physician or the endocrinologist.And do not do anything on your own, it has to be done under medical supervision.

Definitely not: But talk w/your doctor about possible adjustment in the dose.
