Suggest Generic Antianginal Drugs
I have two different pills that are supposed to be the generic for Procardia XL - I would like to know if both these bills are generice for Procardia XL - one pill has the letter G and the number 30 underneath it. The other pill is KU260. Originally, I was taking the generic pill Nifedical XL - but these two substitutes look different. They are 30MG.

All the drugs you mentioned are extended release formulation of nifedipine 30 mg, you can use these drugs interchangeably. However I will recommend that you chose one and take it forever as the drug release and other properties are slightly different in different preparation s and so it will help your doctor to stabilise the drug dosage to maintain plateau blood pressure
