1000 micrograms (mcg)= 1 milligram (mg)
100 mcg= .1 mg

Since thyronorm and levothyroxine are one in the same medication (just different brand names), it becomes clear to me that levothyroxine 100mcg is a significantly smaller dose than thyronorm 100mg.

That said, you will probably notice the difference in strength when switching to thyronorm. However I certainly wouldn't be able to tell you how this will effect you in comparison to your previous dosage, as everyone reacts to these medications differently.

I hope this helps!

Hi, I was on medication for hypothyroidism for 7 years.... Having Thyronorm 50mcg till now and with recent tests my doctor changed my medicine to levothyroxine 75mcg.... Because of a location change I have already got Thyronorm 50mcg, 2 more bottles... Can I still continue the same Thyronorm tablet by having more than half of the tablet daily...? Are they both the same or do I need to buy levothyroxine only...? Kindly suggest.
