What is the difference, besides appearance, between simvastatin 20 mg drl and simvastatin? I just refilled a prescription of the drl. It is small, round and brown. The new simvastatin prescription is small, oval and sort of orange/tan. ## In this case, it is highly likely that they were just manufactured by a different company. I can't say with certainty, since the poster didn't provide the markings from the tablets they mentioned, but if the dosage is the same, that's usually the first thing that confuses many people. Each manufacturer has to use different markings on their tablets, to enable them to be identified in case of emergency. The shape and color of pills is purely up to their whit and whim.

I have Simvastatin 20mg PINK oval pills stamped with AZ21. All "Pill Identifiers" online show BROWN or LIGHT BROWN as the color for 20mg strength. Please help since I may have a 10mg or 40mg pill that is mislabeled ???? ! Thx ## Where did you get them? It's important to note that the color doesn't actually mean anything, it is entirely up to the whit and whim of the manufacturer and they can change it at any time, if they wish. However, yes the listings cite this one as being a brown tablet and the images actually show it as being a very pale tan or beige color. Color is also a matter of perception, so what you're seeing as pink could be the same color I'm seeing in the identifier database images. Have you actually look at the images? There is a 40mg that is pink...

I have been taking simvastatin 20MG for sometime now and it was a tan round shaped tablet. I just start a new bottle refill that is described as a brick red oval shaped tablet. Have changes been made to this medication or do I have the wrong pills? ## Simvastatin is a generic medication, which is used to help lower cholesterol, and as a generic, it is manufactured by quite a few different companies. It is also normal for a pharmacy to switch their supplier, when they restock, if a different company is offering it cheaper. So, you probably do have the correct medication, just manufactured by a different company. There are 20mg Simvastatin tablets that meet the description you provided, but what are the markings on the tablets? If you can post back with this information, then I can check ...
