Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
HI i have TSH level 7.5 one of the doctor advised me to take 12.5 mg eltroxin as i searched it everywhere and could not find it.HOwever the docter advised to break the 25 mg into two and can have it.so it is advisable to order the medicine online as i do not see 12.5 mg anywhere in stores.
So Eltroxin 12.5 mcg is freely available. You can purchase the drug of any other brand if one particular brand is not available. However, breaking off 25 mcg tablet into half is not advisable as the drug loses its efficacy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Loveleen Sharma, General & Family Physician
