Usually my pharmaqcy p[uts a little tag on the bottle telling me the medicine might look different if they have changed suppliers----just call and talk to the pharmacist to verify that the color change is still the right medication.

  Hi and welcome to the GERD forum.

The Pharmacist would be the go to person regarding changes like this, they know more about the meds then Drs....so if ur pharmacist is saying it is the same med, then u have to trust them to know.

I am not on that med as of now so I can not concur with what I have.
