The pictures are diagrams drawn from the shape, colour and imprint on the FDA label — not photographs of the actual tablet. Identify by the imprint, and confirm with a pharmacist.

  • What else is in this pill

    The inactive ingredients — fillers, binders, coatings and colours — exactly as this label declares them.

    • This label declares lactose (milk sugar)

      Lactose monohydrate, Anhydrous lactose

      A common tablet filler. Amounts are small, but people with severe lactose intolerance ask about it.

    Full inactive-ingredient list (12)

    Pregelatinized starch, Corn starch, Lactose monohydrate, Colloidal silicon dioxide, Croscarmellose sodium, Anhydrous lactose, Stearic acid, Hypromellose, Titanium dioxide, Polyethylene glycol, Yellow iron oxide, Red iron oxide

    This is what the label lists, and nothing more. An ingredient not appearing here does not mean the product is free of it — formulations differ between manufacturers and between generic versions of the same pill, and “gluten-free” or “dye-free” is a claim only the manufacturer can make. If you have coeliac disease or a diagnosed allergy, confirm with the pharmacist against the pack in front of you.

    Before you rely on this

    A pill’s appearance varies between manufacturers and generic versions, imprints wear off, and two different drugs can share an imprint. Everything here is transcribed straight from the FDA’s DailyMed labels — we do not alter or infer it — but treat any identification as a starting point and confirm with a licensed pharmacist before taking or discarding a medication.
