Tablet size

[Greenwall]

Hi.

Just wondered how much difference there is in actual tablet size between the 25 mg and the 50 mg tablets? I'm sure most of you will know.

Thanks.

No difference in physical size (or colour) as far as I remember when I was on 75mcg many moons ago. Therefore had to be careful when decanting into a dosette box. This was with Wockhardt and Actavis.

Mercury Pharma, at long last have coloured back of blister packs in different colours for different strength pills

Helps make sure you dispense right dose

They are virtually identical in size

Depends on the make.

(By the way, doses are in micrograms (mcg) not milligrams (mg). )
