Is S Leflunomide 20 Mg The Right Medicine For Rheumatoid Arthritis?

My husband takes Leflunomide, 20 MG, for Rheumatoid Arthritis, it has always been a white, triangular pill. This time I had to get it at a different pharmacy and it is triangular, but it is a soft yellow. It did not come with a manufacturer name, so my question is, does this dosage come in this color??? if you could let me know, I sure would appreciate it.. Debbie Bartek
