Lisinopril Tablet Colors and Markings

Lisinopril tablets come in various colors and may have markings to help identify the dosage. The appearance can vary depending on the manufacturer.

Common colors include white, light yellow, and peach. Some tablets may be scored (have a line across them) for easier splitting, although always check with your doctor or pharmacist before breaking a tablet.

Markings, such as imprinted letters or numbers, are also used for identification. These markings can differ between brands and dosages. For example, you might see “L” for Lisinopril followed by a number denoting the milligram strength.

Color Markings (Examples) Dosage (mg) Manufacturer Note
White L10 10 This is an example; markings vary widely.
Light Yellow L20 20 Always verify with the manufacturer’s information.
Peach MZ20 20 Different manufacturers use different codes.

It’s crucial to carefully examine your prescription and the medication packaging to confirm the appearance matches the prescribed dosage. If you have any doubts about the appearance of your lisinopril tablets, contact your pharmacist or doctor immediately.
