I picked up a generic for Tiazac and the generic is dark green. Is this a safe generic? I can't find out anything about it on the internet. ## I really can't tell you anything about it or confirm what it contains just from the color of the tablet, I'm sorry. It is actually the markings on the tablet that tell us what it is. Did you get it from a licensed U.S. pharmacy? If so, then there shouldn't be a problem, as they are only allowed to supply you with FDA approved generics. Diltiazem is a calcium channel blocker that is commonly used to help treat high blood pressure and cardiac problems. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and dizziness.
