The dose of the thyroxine depends on the body weight . In subclinical hypothyroidism dose of 1 mcg is given per kg body weight (eg in a 50 kg person dose of thyroxine 50 mcg will be given )and in overt hypothyroidism dose of 1.6 to 1.8 is given per Kg body weight .
The target
TSH after starting the treatment should be mid normal of the reference range . So you would actually need to increase the dose rather than decreasing it .
