Benicar 40 Mg

Medical provider disallowed my prescription for benicar. Wanted to switch me to Diovan. Purchased 90 day supply of Benicar 40 from Canadian source but its a different shaped pill and a different manufacturer. Olvance Olmesartan Medoxomil 40 mg. Anyone take this stuff ?? Any feedback would be appreciated,

Hi Greg,

Is the site you purchased your meds from reputable? I'm pretty sure that the difference in shape is only because of the different manufacturer. I have heard that the Benicar and Olvance (Olmesartan) are basically the same thing, the only difference may be the "inactive" ingredients. What is the name of the manufacturer who makes the Olvance (Olmesartan) you purchased? I may be able to find their contact information for you if you'd like to call them about your medication.

I hope this helps!
