I refilled my Equate antacid equivalent to Gaviscon which I have been using for years. The new tablets which have an imprint of G 128 are nothing like they have been. They are now somewhat gritty and have a mint flavor. The former tabs have little taste but for a slight sweetness. They are not gritty and evolve into almost a gel when chewed. ## Did you ask the Wal-Mart pharmacist about this? They may have changed the formulation of the Equate product. It is considered an over the counter product, which doesn't require a prescription, so they are really free to change some stuff about it, whenever they choose to do so.

does,any one knows what white pill with s 610 on it,what is it for????? maybe gas pill????? ## I can't find a listing for this in any of the U.S. prescription drug databases. And if it's an over the counter product, it may be very difficult to identify, because they don't have to log their imprints with the FDA. Most gas products, however, are gelcaps and not tablets, which usually contain Simethicone. It could possibly be an antacid: Was it found in the U.S.? ## Could be 019 (610 upside down)? If so, perhaps it's Actavis' alprazolam 25mg ODT. They're small and round. No "s" though.
