Similarity Of Myla Carvedilol And Lisinopril

My doctor has prescribed Carvedilol 12.5mg 1 in the morning and 2 at night and Lisinopril 10 mg 1 in the morning and 1 at night. My pharmacy recently switched to Myla and now the tablets are almost identical. They are the same size, both round and white, and both with a big M on one side. The only difference is the microscopic numbers on the other side. The potential for confusion is very high. Safeway Corp has mandated this switch. How do we get either Mylan to change or Safeway to change???

You can't. As long as the numbers are different, then they are within the bounds of the law.

I understand how confusing it can be, but the best and safest thing you can do is to leave the tablets in their respective pharmacy bottles, so they are properly labeled and do not get mixed up.

Are there any other comments or questions?
