    Possibly simvastatin. Why do you want to know , is it for an elderly relative?

    It can be very difficult to identify tablets by their subscription. It's a problem we have all the time when people are filling out medical histories.

    If you are not sure what a tablet is ask the gp as accurate information is essential.

    If it is an elderly relative mixing up their meds pharmacies can make up all their tablets into blister packs with the days of the week and times on them so they have everything they need to take at a certain time together.

    Take it to your local pharmacist eg in Boots. They'll identify it, and dispose of it correctly.

    Ps agree with above, probably simvastatin.

    Cooper18 is right - PLEASE take it to a PHARMACIST (not the chemist) and show it to them. they will dispose of it safely for you if it is not yours.
    just in case you need to know:
