There is no fear!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I know it is difficult to accept a drug formulation that you have never known of before. However, there are so many pharmaceutical companies tht produce the same drug in different shapes, colour, size, surface makings, etc. It is the work of the government to control and make sure they are of good quality so that individual consumers can be protected. Because this drug was supplied by a pharmacy, it must have met and passed the stringent standards of drug quality. Feel free to use tis drug without any further worries. Please, compare with the previous and sure you would not fine any difference between the different presentations. Should you note any, simply switch back and continue with the previous formulation/presentation. Talk to your pharmacist about this should you have further doubts bout this new presentation that you received.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and please do feel free to ask for more question if need be.
