there was no letters just a line down the middle. on one side. it was light blue and round ## If there are no markings on it, then it is most likely an over the counter product. Learn more OTC drug details here. One in particular that I've seen that looks like this is a generic or store brand of Aleve, they contain 220mgs of Naproxen. Learn more Naproxen details here. But I can't confirm that's what it is, without any markings. Where was it found?

The cost of my etodolac has suddenly doubled. Has this happened to anyone else on here? ## Is this your co-payment or the full cash price? If it's your co-payment, then it would be due to some changed made by your insurance company. However, if you pay straight cash for it, then something has changed at the pharmacy. They may be getting it from a new supplier that charges a higher price. In many cases, they have a contract that locks in a given price for a certain period of time, so if a price suddenly jumps, it means that their agreement was up for it and they were forced to pay a higher amount for it themselves.

I only found one listing, though, so I am not 100% certain of this identification. Does anyone else recognize this, or confirm this ID?

A dark blue oval shape pain pill ## Are there any markings on it? That is what would enable it to be identified. If there are no markings, it is most likely something that's available over the counter and, if that is the case, then the most commonly available oval, blue tablet would be a generic or store brand of Aleve that contains Naproxen.

i have prednisone 5052 watons they are ten years old are the pills still good? will they still work? ## No, they have likely lost most of their effectiveness by now and you should just dispose of them. Even when pills are left in the factory sealed container, the longest shelf life is usually only 3 years. Once they are opened and dispensed in a pharmacy bottle that exposes them to the elements that cause degradation, the expiration shortens to just one year. Learn more Prednisone details here. Are there any other questions?

I get gout. Whats better for keeping it down, naproxen 500mg or indomethacin 50mg? Also how much % of antinflamatory is in the naproxen 500mg? ## Because both of these medications are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), their effectiveness is going to depend upon a comparable dosage to one-another as well as the way your body responds to each medication. Personally, I would look into natural remedies (such as essential oils) as a treatment option, simply due to the fact that there are little or no side effects in comparison to pharmaceutical drugs. As to how much % of anti-inflamatory is in the Naproxen, I don't have an answer to that. Have you tried either of those medications yet to see how well each one helps?
