Thanks. There isn’t any 50mg tablets and I assume it’s 50 microgram tablet.
I under-active thyroid problem, the lipids will be abnormal anyway.
Go and check the risks of developing coronary artery disease and stroke. If the risk is more than 10% over 10 years period, then take cholesterol lowering tablets. See a local cardiologist for risk assessment.
