No, sometimes your body gets use to the dose that you are taking and you may need to increase your dose if you are feeling increased hypothyroid symptoms. I have been on synthroid and levothyroxine. I prefer synthroid over levothyroxine, but for everyone it is different. I feel worst when my doctor tell me that my levels are within normal range and I feel my best when they are slightly higher. Find out what works best for you and try to stay there. My TSH has been as high as 80 and as low as .5 Know your numbers and when you feel your best, go get your labs done, so you can know where you need to stay.

My tsh level was 5.92 I have not one symptom of thyroid problems, all other blood levels are normal. My doctor (2nd time seeing) made up symptoms of goiter and swollen feet of which I have neither. Gave me a presciption of Levothyroxin 25mcg. which I have refused to take because of thTHOFJe things mentioned above. She said I would have to be on this med. for life. What should I do?

Located an exact match, it's Levothyroxine 0.05 mg. This medicine is a hormone replacement usually given to patients with thyroid problems, specifically, hypothyroidism.
