Looking For Diabetes Medication. Unable To Recollect The Name. White Oblong Medicine With AZ 328 Imprint. Suggesstions?

Hi. I am looking for a medication that my father in law takes and he isnt sure of the name of the medication. He has diabetes and was wondering what the pills were. They might even be a otc medication. The description is white oblong with the imprint AZ 328 on one side. Nothing on the reverse. I hope you are able to identify.

Hello dear,

The oblong pill with an imprint "AZ 328" as mentioned in your post might be a generic form of Tylenol (pharmacologically Acetaminophen).
It acts as an analgesic agent used for management of pain.
It is not an anti-diabetic medication.
Though it may be available OTC, it is always better to take it under guidance of a Doctor to avoid unwanted side effects or risk of interaction with anti-diabetes medication.

Wishing your father in law a good health.
Take care.
