There is still name confusion surrounding the name Levoxyl. That med is one of the separate brands of the generic levothyroxine. But it sounds too much like the generic and so far two doctors and the pharmacy have mixed things up on me. I was originally told that if I go on a brand its important to stick to that brand for consistency - so this is an issue for me. Luckily, Im paying attention but feel for folks who may not be as alert (like the elderly).
