One bottle says Simbastatin 10mg tab NOR and the refill says Simbastatin 10mg tab ZYD
The one with the ZYD is pink and say ZA20 on the pill and the other one,NOR, is white,round and has a 10 on it. Are these the same?

My pharmacist always tells me when he gives me a medication by a different vendor so that I won't be worried and he also puts a sticker on the bottle stating it looks different but it's the same medication.

Those are just abbreviations for the names of the manufacturers of those particular tablets.
For example, the ZYD stands for Zydus Pharmaceuticals.
