Doctor had earlier prescribed me 12.5 mcg of thyroxine medicine, but now he has increased the dose to 50 mcg. My question is ,can I take 4 tablets of 12.5 mcg in place of buying a 50mcg bottle?

Yes. You can take four tablets till you finish your bottle. Next time you should buy a 50 mcg size of the tablet.
