i found a blue round pill with E 72 on one side and nothing on the other. Can anyone help identify this pill? ## Based on the description provided, I believe the blue pill you have is called Lovastatin (20 mg); manufactured by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals Inc. Lovastatin is an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA reductase), an enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate. Mevalonate is a required building block for cholesterol biosynthesis and lovastatin interferes with its production by acting as a reversible competitive inhibitor for HMG-CoA which binds to the HMG-CoA reductase.

I have a round, pink tablet that has the number 634 imprinted on one side and a design is on the other side. Is this a Lovastatin tablet? ## I believe what you are referring to is the purepac logo which is a stylized R, this is indeed Lovastatin 20mgs.

What is this? The imprint is a captal M then beneath that is a capital L19. The other side is blank. It's white. ## It sounds like you have a 10 mg Lovastatin, a cholesterol lowering drug. Sound familiar at all? ## Yup. That's it. I guess the new batch I have, which has a 633 on one side and what looks like a script R on the other, is the same thing by another company. Thanks.
