What Does A Losartan 100mg Pill Look Like

Please help identify this pill. It is solid white oval/elliptical no scoring or inscription other than 13 on one side only. It is supposed to be losartan 100mg. However I can find no verification that this is so. Thanks G ## Hello, Gee Gee! How are you? Where did you get it? I can't find a listing in the prescription drug databases for any tablet with just a 13 on it. Losartan is an ARB that is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Typical side effects are listed by the FDA as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, hypotension and stomach pain. I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you. Does anyone else recognize this tablet? ## I got it from my pharmacy and was affraid a mistake had b...

Doctor prescribed this pill for high blood pressure 100mg. On the back of the pill is a #13 and the pill is round medium sized. Anyway I ran out of medicine and I went to the pharmacy but the pill is now oval 100mg #13 and now is twice as big as the round pill that I was taking before. I am so scared that they made a mistake on the medicine. It looks bigger than the one that I was taking. I went to the drug store and the lady that works there told me that is the same thing. It's just that they change manufac. (please help) I did not start that second oval pill yet. ## Hello, Maria! How are you? A white, oval tablet with the number 13 on it is manufactured by Virtus Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 100mgs of Losartan. The size can sometimes vary from one manufacturer to...

OVAL GREENISH BLUE PILL WITH MRK ON ONE SIDE AND 096 ON THE OTHER ..WHAT IS IT? ## I want to know what this pill that is oval and a blue green with the markings on one side of mrk and the other side 096 is.

Little white pill with 06E and SZ or ZS, depending on how you look at it. Blank on other side ## I believe you were looking at part of the imprint upside down. I think it's actually SZ 390 and the tablet contains 25mgs of Hydrochlorothiazide and 100mgs of Losartan and it is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Learn more Hydrochlorothiazide details here. Learn more Losartan details here. Can you please double check and let me know if that's the correct imprint? Thanks! ## Yes 390 zs Thanks My prior meds was a different shape color and size. Just wanted to be sure this was correct before I start taking it. I see it was a different MFR from the last refill.

my losartan 100mg tablets from my last refill now are green in color and smaller in size. i spoke with my kelsey pharmacy and was told they are using a different mfg aurobindo. I looked them up and they are located somewhere in India. my losartan was coming from mfg northstar. how can i tell if the ingredience in the new green pills are the same as the white larger pills? Do I need to check with my doctor about this change? I have not had any problem with the old white pills. ## Hello, Maggie! How are you? Rest assured that if you are receiving them from a licensed U.S. pharmacy, they have passed the same approval process as the other ones that you were getting. Losartan is a generic medication and once a drug is available for generic manufacture, it is usually manufactured by several d...
