A blue capsule with pellets. Scored, no imprint, and it is supposed to be my blood pressure medication.
Foil thickness and seal pattern are where counterfeit blisters fail.
Enteric coatings should not be crushed, and the pellets are the delivery mechanism rather than filler.
A scored oval with a two-letter code is usually a generic but the code is manufacturer-specific.
A smell that is wrong is a reason to look closer, not a verdict. Excipients do most of the smelling.
Any ideas welcome, and I will report back what the pharmacist says.
