Switching the way I'm taking my levothyroxine, is it okay?
Posted , 4 users are following.
I've been taking my pill without water every morning for years, I recently had my dose increased by my doctor and was told by my pharmacist to start taking it with water.
So, is there a chance my dose could be too high now since it's been increased and I'm now taking it with water?
I'm not worried that it would be a little too high but could it be dangerously high?
My last TSH test was over 4.0 so I have a way to go before I get too high...
Thanks!

Before, I was told that the pill could get stuck in my throat but I didn't care about that so never took it with water...but I guess that is something we should worry about since it expands pretty rapidly they say.

But is it possible to get dangerously high? My dose was increased from 112 to 125.

Just keep aware of your body. But don't think on it too much, our minds can often affect us too.
