Trying to figure out what kinda of pill this is found it in my sons ## I really need to find out what kinda pill my son is taking ## Is there any chance that the marking on the pill was read upside down? I'm only asking because the imprint "L194" comes up as a small white round pill by the name of Famotidine 20 mg; a medication used to treat stomach ulcers / acidity. For verification, the size of this pill is reportedly 8.00 mm and manufactured by Major Pharmaceuticals with a National Drug Code of 00904-5780.

Dosage and directions for Altosec 20 ## From what I was able to gather Altosec is not from the US, I believe it's from South Africa. I did however I located the active ingredient, it's Omeprazole. To learn more click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do. ## What is the drug Altosec 20 used for? They are capsules. ## I use altosec for acid reflux. Ever since i started using it i have never had reflux. It also healed my bruising i had internally. ## Quite correct, it's from South Africa, but where better to find a cure for anything abdominal where it would be an every day expected occurrence. This product is amazing, it really hones in where it is supposed to!

I have a pinkish colored decent sized pink pill. There are no markings on it just a line down the middle on one side. I also I have the same pills in white. Plain white and oval with just a line down the middle on one side. Anyone know what these are? ## I'm sorry, but without any markings, it is going to be difficult to determine exactly what these tablets contain. We can rule them out as being a U.S. manufactured prescription product, because they are all required by law to have an imprint to enable their identification. However, it they could be over the counter products and there is a small chance that they could be foreign medications. Where were they found/obtained? ## It is Famotidine, or pepcid. ## I have the same type of pills and two different colors of pink and one whitis...
