An oblong scored tablet. Scored, no imprint, and it is supposed to be my blood pressure medication.

A scored oval with a two-letter code is usually a generic but the code is manufacturer-specific.

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

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

Would rather not guess, which is why I am asking.

It gets smaller. Not easy, smaller. That distinction kept me going.

Side effects was my main issue with an oblong scored tablet too.

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

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

Access to mugs should be on the clinical questionnaire.

Small wins count. Walking to the mailbox is a data point.

Careful with attribution. You changed the timing, the dose and the season. That is three variables. Six weeks in on an oblong scored tablet and it lines up.

Ten percent cuts, of the current dose not the original. That is the arithmetic that keeps it survivable.
