Levothyroxine Dosage Query

Question

Asked for Male, 17 Years

Hi, I have hypothyroidism and my dose of levothyroxine is 100mcg a day. I was just wondering, what would happen if i took 2 or 3 tablets one day? Is it possible to die from taking too many? I worry because sometimes i forget if I've taken it that day and I've always been curious how dangerous it was/how much would accidentally kill somebody.
