Mcg (micrograms) are 1000 times smaller than mg (milligrams). For example, a drug that has a strength of .075 mg is equivalent to 75 mcg. Many drugs are measured in mg, but some are in mcg. Always be aware of what you are taking - make sure you have been given the correct strength prescribed by the doctor or that the doctor wrote down the correct strength on the prescription. A difference in a few decimal points can mean a major over/underdose! Hope this helps!
Since each pill contains 6.248 mg (6248 mcg / 1000) you will need to take 200.06 pills ( 1250mg / 6.248 = 200.06).

What is the difference of 50 mcg and 0.05 mg of levothyroxine
mcg / 1,000 = mg
