Atenolol 25mg Differences In Manufacturers
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I just received my atenolol 25 mg. from a mail order pharmacy. It looks noticeably larger than the ones I have been getting from retail pharmacies for the past 6 years. The bigger one is marked Z65 and the other ones were
marked either TEVA 787 or RE 19. Are they the same dosage? Why are they different sizes?

Yes, all of the tablets you've mentioned contain 25mgs of Atenolol, they're all just manufactured by different companies, which is normal for a generic medication.

And there is nothing that dictates the size a pill should be, that depends on the manufacturing process and the inactive ingredients they decide to use.

Are there any other questions or concerns?
