Are you sure the pharmacy is giving you the same brand you've always had? Color, flavor, and texture can be drastically different in different brands of the same drug. The name of the manufacturer should be on the prescription label. Most pharmacies get their drugs from wholesale distributors and many do not get to choose the brand they receive. Or if there is a shortage of the drug it may only be available from certain manufacturers. If you know it is the same brand you've always had then the manufacturer may have reformulated it for some reason. Ask at the pharmacy on your next refill if they have more than one brand in stock. Promethazine with codeine is available in generic form from many different manufacturers.
