The batch number. Scored, no imprint, and it is supposed to be my blood pressure medication.

Imprint is the strongest signal, colour is the weakest, and the shape only narrows the manufacturer.

Genuine cartons have print that aligns to the die cut. Copies drift by a millimetre or so.

Any ideas welcome, and I will report back what the pharmacist says.

Imprint databases are mostly US-centric. A confident hit for another market is still a guess.

How do you get a clear photo of an imprint? Mine keep coming out blurry.

Sorry, probably obvious, but where do you even start with something blank?

The hologram is the least useful check because it is the one everybody makes.

My pharmacist has become my actual doctor and I am at peace with it.

Batch and expiry copied from a real box will already be nearly expired. That is the tell.
