Equivalent pills — same medicine, different imprint

The pills below contain the same active ingredient at the same strength (Valacyclovir hydrochloride 1 g). Different makers stamp their own codes, so equivalent pills often look completely different.

How can I be sure this identification is right?

Check every characteristic — imprint (both sides), colour, shape, size and score — against the pill in your hand. If all of them agree, the pill matches the FDA label shown here, but that is still not a guarantee: counterfeit pills copy real imprints. A pharmacist can confirm the identification in person, and you should never take a pill you are not certain about.
