Refill Doesn't Look The Same

Updated

I have been taking Sertraline for several years and have had great success with it. I received a new refill this week and it's yellow. My old prescription was pink. The current pill is yellow with a W on one side and 5 6 on the other side. They are 100 mg tablets. Can you tell me what the difference is between the yellow and pink? I won't take it till I know and I haven't taken it for 4 days.

I'm glad I found this comment. It looks like you posted it a while ago, so I hope you found an answer for it. But I had the same question, because the Sertraline refill that I got today looks different than normal, and seems to be the same one you are talking about - it's kind of a yellowish-tan color and has W on one side, and 5 | 6 on the other. I'm going to assume then, that if we both got the same thing, it is in fact Sertraline in a different form.

Both W56 (100mgs)and SL50 (50mgs) are Sertraline, just different manufacturers than the ones you were getting before.

Most pharmacies switch according to whoever supplies them with the cheapest when they are restocking their supplies.

Once a drug is available for generic production, it can be made by many different companies and while there are no regulations regarding the size, shape or color of a tablet, the imprints must be unique to enable someone to identify the manufacturer, dosage and active ingredient.

Sertraline is a generic for Zoloft, this is an SSRI class antidepressant.

Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and headache.
