Ran 1 Oblong White Tablet From Canada
UpdatedI am trying to figure out what this pill is. It is oblong shaped (rectangular with rounded edges), blank on one side, and the other side has the imprint code RAN 1. Because this pill is Canadian in origin I am not able to find it in any of the standard U.S. drug databases. Anybody have ideas as to what this could be?
