Is C03 As Well As B302 Simvastatin?

My husband just got a refill on his cholesterol medicine and they were two different numbers. One was C03 and the other B302 (Simvastatin). I am inquiring as to whether they are the same thing and the pharmacy is closed at this time. I should clarify that half the pills were one brand and half the other brand name. They did have a sticker that stated some pills might be a different color shape and size, but am wanting to verify that they are Simvastatin. Thank you :-)

Hi Ma'am

I understand your concern Ma'am and that's a good attitude. The names which you are giving here do not confirm whether they are SIMVASTATIN or not. So I would like to suggest you to wait till pharmacy open and get in confirmed from there.

Good Luck
