Kathie,

What are the markings on the pill? There are several white 20mg Nadolol, and the markings vary by manufacturer as Russ said.

A couple possibilities include:

AP 2461, manufactured by Apothecon.

Z 4235 on one side with 20 on the other. Manufactured by Teva Pharmaceuticals.

There may be others as well, but I was just wondering if any of the above markings match up with what you have?

No they're different. For grins I googled the imprint on the new pills and found they are Nadolol but by a different manufacturer than the old yellow ones. Thanks! I now know I'm taking the right stuff.

I can't tell you anything from just the colors, but I can tell you that the colors don't actually mean anything, this is entirely up to the whit and whim of the manufacturer.

Nadolol is a non-selective Beta-Blocker, used in the treatment of high blood pressure, chest pain and migraine headaches.

Common side effects may include: nausea, fatigue, brachycardia and bronchospasms.

Do the tablets have the same imprint as the prior ones you were receiving?

I had the same concern which is how I found your post. Mine are now white too.
