“Amlodipine5mg/Benazepril 10mg pill within a pill?”
Hello, I have been prescribed Amlodipine5mg/Benazepril 10mg, which is a capsule that has a smaller capsule inside. I would like to know which is the outer pill and which is the inner pill. Is Amlodipine 5mg the outside pill since it is listed first? The pill is marked RDY 339.

The capsule does not have another capsule inside, the capsule is composed of two open ended shells that are sealed by being inserted into the other. Inside the whole composite capsule is powder and has both amlodipine and benazepril mixed together. You are unable to separate the two.
