Two tablets arrived in one blister and they do not match each other. A slightly off-colour batch described in detail below.

Asking a pharmacist costs nothing and they can weigh and measure what a description cannot convey.

A batch number and an expiry that are almost up on a new purchase usually means the box was copied.

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

Holograms are the least useful check because they are the one everybody makes.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?

Take one to a pharmacist. Free, two minutes, correct. Everything else here is a hypothesis.

Sorry, probably obvious, but where do you even start with something blank? Same for me with a slightly off-colour batch, unfortunately.

Ask for the longer appointment slot. Ten minutes is not enough for a complex history and pretending otherwise wastes both your time.

How do you get a clear photo of an imprint? Mine keep coming out blurry. Not on a slightly off-colour batch but the pattern is familiar.
