Immediately call the manufacturer that makes the Metformin -if the bottle was sealed from the manufacturer (not placed in a pharmacy vial or opened in the pharmacy) the manufacturer has to investigate the mix-up. They will want to know the lot number/Exp date on the bottle and may want to get you to send the tablet back so they can see it.
BristolPharm is correct, you need to contact the company and report it to them. They will want to look into the matter and discover how it happened.
Pharmaceutical companies don't take this type of thing lightly, because if someone didn't notice the difference in the tablets and took them, it could have serious detrimental effects, if they are allergic to NSAIDs or have certain medical conditions.

Are there any other questions or comments?
Another option, if you think the manufacturer will not take the report seriously, you can call the FDA. Call FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 to report serious reactions, product quality problems, therapeutic failure, and product use errors by telephone. They will then share the information with the manufacturer and force them to investigate.
YOU CAN SUE IN THE CONSUMER COURT AND TAKE LEGAL ACTION AND ASK FOR COMPENSASION
FOR MORE INFORMATION SEND DETAILS TO MY EMAIL

No wonder our med prices are so high. Because of people like Frank just looking for a buck. If you only taking 50mg of Metformon 2 x per day. Your diabetes won't be effected if you missed 1 days dose. Throw the Motrin away
