Hi terry,

Both of the pills in question are one in the same drug. The only difference I noticed is that they are manufactured by different companies. Because of this, there may be a slight variation of inactive ingredients; but other than that you can be assured that they are the same drug and same dosage.

Certain "inactive" ingredients that may or may not be present in each brand, are actually detrimental to how the drug is metabolized and used by your body. Because everyone is different, your body may respond favorably with one medication and not the other, due to how you feel or based on whatever side effects present themselves.

When you switch brand names or manufacturers, the drug itself doesn't change, but rather the binders or fillers that they put with it.

SZ 213 is Manufactured by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals Inc. and contains the following inactive ingredients:
microcrystalline cellulose
croscarmellose sodium
silicon dioxide
magnesium stearate
hydroxypropyl cellulose
stearic acid
triethyl citrate
titanium dioxide
magnesium silicate
ferric oxide red

Z16 is Manufactured by Zydus Pharmaceuticals and contains the following inactive ingredients:
hypromelloses
lactose monohydrate
magnesium stearate
polyethylene glycol
sodium starch glycolate type A potato
magnesium silicate
titanium dioxide
silicon dioxide
microcrystalline cellulose
low substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose
corn starch

I hope this helps to answer your question!
