My dr prescribed Purbac Ds 950 mg tabs, but the tab the chemist gave to me does not look like the correct tablet, as there is the word C24 engraved on the tab. Is this the right one or not?

In my investigation, neither Purbac Adult, Purbac DS or Purbac Paediatric suspension are available in 950mg dosage forms. The manufacturer ("Pharmacare Limited") only lists 40mg/200mg; 80mg/400mg; 160mg/800mg - not to mention, 950mg would only represent one of the two active ingredients in Purbac (Trimethoprim/Sulphamethoxazole).

To ensure that you received the appropriate medication, I would encourage you to contact the chemist where you got it from.

Was your dosage custom made/tailored by your doctor to meet your own unique set of circumstances?

I am also not finding any reliable data on a Purbac tablet engraved with C24. Only a brief mention of C24 in another related thread (linked here): Purbac C24.

What is the shape and color of your pill?
