Do not stop the medicine abruptly. Instead, it's usually safer to adjust the dose down under medical supervision.
Recommended next step:
Talk to your doctor about reducing the dose, commonly to 50 mcg or 25 mcg depending on: Symptoms (if any) Age, heart condition, and general health.
Free T3 and Free T4 levels (which ideally should be checked along with TSH)
Next Steps
connect with reports for further management.
