Default ID needed urgently

New Rx opened for wife. Supposed to be lisinopril/zestril 20mg. However, pills are 5-sided, white, with 3760 on one side and 2 deltas (triangles) on other. Unable to ID at picture site. Assistance requested ASAP as Rx is necessary on daily basis.

Yes, she received the right med.

Your pill is Lisinopril 20mg (Zestril®)

I have a photo, but don't think I can post it here. If you would like to see the photo I can post it on another site for you.

The mfg's website does not have a photo, but you can at least verify the imprint there. The two triangle logo belongs to Ivax, who was just bought by Teva.

You can view the mfg's info on this pill here (there isn't much info there however):

Here is an attempt to link to the photo:

If it doesn't work, let me know.

Many thanks. Image shows well and is the item we have. Drugs.com came up zero for the pill image and high concern here. You have made our day.

I am glad I could help, that is what we are here for.

I believe it is a somewhat new imprint, and with the mfg's recent merger, photos on their website have been hit and miss lately.

Some databases have more imprints/drugs than others, but the id database here doesn't have an extensive amount of info. Plus databases are only updated about twice a year, so boards like these often have the info before it is published in an 'official' source.

Thanks again. Your info allowed follow-up by calling TEVA and confirming the tablet as correct. The TEVA site you provided with its word description and imprint verification raised the comfort level. Wife has severe macular degeneration problem and had not realized the 'new' pill was not the prior beige/round; thought we had a serious problem as now find some of Rx had been consumed before change noted.

Have been unable to access the Medscape image site beyond the one link and pic you supplied. Any suggestion for expanding search there to all images as would like to save that site in addition to those available at drugs.com?
