Is Diltiazem XR medication equal as Dilitazem 240?

I changed pharmacies, and my new pills are not like peas in a pod color, as the my previous pharmacy pills, should i be concerned? the pharmasist insisted this was matching pill. I use it for high blood pressure.

Answer:
You haven't given adequate information. XR is a release profile i.e. modified release usually over a 24 hour period. 240 would indicate the strength of the diltiazem. Are you from US? I don't recognise XR as a proprietary brand term.

Ps you are supposed to have like brand each time regardless, due to bioequivalence so I would put my foot down and travel back to the pharmacist.
There is an XR formulation beside 240 mg, and that is probably the 240 on the pill. The pharmacy probably a moment ago gets a different generic.
After looking surrounded by a handbook of mine, it say, dilitiazem comes in (XR extended release) preparations of, 60,90,120,180,240,300,360,420 mg. The capsule (sustained release) dilit. comes in 60,90,120 mg. And tablets come surrounded by 30, 60, 90, 120 mg. Therefore the only bearing you can get a 240 mg dose is by getting the XR reworked copy all along. But bid your former pharmacist and check anyways.
