Sorry, Lorenda, but we can't find an image of this tablet. And I don't know when it was discontinued. It's not a popular blood pressure medicine; safer alternatives have replaced this combination.

And we can't determine when the pill was discontinued. Here is all the info from the FDA's Orange Book:

Active Ingredient: HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE; METHYLDOPA
Dosage Form;Route: TABLET; ORAL
Proprietary Name: METHYLDOPA AND HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE
Applicant: WATSON LABS
Strength: 15MG;250MG
Application Number: 071920
Product Number: 001
Approval Date: Aug 29, 1988
RX/OTC/DISCN: DISCN (discontinued)

If it's really important to you, call Watson Pharmaceuticals and ask a customer service rep. Here is the contact info:
