I have mixed up 2 medications. They look the same and they are so small [View all]

I can't read the imprints on them even with my glasses and camera.

One is Latuda which has given m horrible acathexia and the other is Atavan. I told the nurse practitioner yesterday and now I realize she had nothing to say except, "don't take Atavan with Klonopin, (which is what I normally take - I had been in the hospital and they gave me the Atavan)

I think during the acathesia which lasted for a few days and is still a little with me I did this. I know when I get it I can't stop moving and in the past I would wake up and my house would look like I dropped a box of monkeys in the middle and went to bed.

I was wondering if the pharmacy can tell them apart? I feel bad about going to CVS because they are worked so damn hard but besides called everyone I know to see who has really good eyesight I don't know what to do.
