Look, the starting dose we generally use of Thyrox is 100mcg everyday. Your doctor has given Thyrox 75 after better understanding of your wife's health conditions. After continuous monitoring we lower the dose accordingly. Your doctor has practiced medicine so long and has has lot more experience than Google. So have trust on your Doctor. Not your friends family or google.
