LL on one side B01 on the other side blue hexagon ## Is this Lisinopril? My tablets used to be pink. I didn't check before leaving the pharmacy andthese are a different color ## This tablet is actually a generic for Zestoretic, it contains 12.5mgs of Hydrochlorothiazide and 10mgs of Lisinopril, it is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Learn more Zestoretic details here. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, hypotension and dehydration. And if you were supposed to receive just Lisinopril, then no, this is not the same thing.

What is the name for Lisinopril/Hydrochlorothiaz TAB 12.5 in Mexico? ## Wow! That's a tough one, because it is Mexico and their medication regulation is virtually non-existent. If you are visiting and looking for a needed medication, your best bet is to just ask for via these generic names, Lisinopril and Hydrochlorothiazide, then just specify that you're looking for a combination medication. Learn more Zestoretic details here. In most cases, from what I've found, the Spanish names used there for the generic medications are very similar, so you likely won't have a problem getting help finding it from a druggist. For instance, Ampicillin there is Ampicilina. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you very much, I appreciate this information

I'm out of work - my health insurance ran out and I I have been taking Lisin/Hctz 20+25. Does anyone know of a company or a clinic that will give me break - I found something on line but they won't identify themselves so I'm afraid to use them. Does anyone know of a similar drug that is cheaper - maybe I can have my doctor prescribe it - my doctor won't help me research it. Thanks. Or maybe a manufacturer that would give me a break ?? ## The name brand for this would be Zestoretic and it is manufactured by AstraZeneca, which actually means good news for you. They have an excellent assistance program for people that use their medications, it's called the AZ & Me program, it's specifically for people with lower incomes and no insurance.
