How can I be sure the pharmacist dispensed correct bill, I never saw it in this form.

I picked up a prescription today for a ACE inhibitior and it is round with the numbers 4357 on one side and 150 on the other. The color of the pill is an orange-peachy color. He assured me it was just from another distributor therefore different from previously used. How can I be sure?

You're sure you picked up an ACE inhibitor? What drug is it suppose to be? What does the bottle say it is?
4357 150 is 150mg Ranitidine HCl (Zantac), This medicine is a histamine blocker used to treat and prevent ulcers. It is also used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

The ACE inhibitor is the the Lisinopril that I also picked up today!
Thanks for your help, I was just a little paranoid with the Ranitidine
being in a different form, last time it was a brown capsule.

That would have been a pretty bad mistake, thanks for replying.
