Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been taking amlodipine besylate 5mg UDL. When I picked up my last refill, I noticed it was different. Normally, it came in a blister pack and is blue but this time it came in a bottle, has ZYD as the suffix, and is white. What is the difference between these two?
It could be a generic from a different company. Or the pharmacy could have made a mistake. Go back to the pharmacy with the bottle and show them. Ask them if it is the same medicine before you start taking it. Hope this answers your query.
