Was prescribed but can't read the label of what it is. Help plz ## What pill is round, white, and no imprints on either side ## A white round pill with no imprints could be anything. However, if you believe that there was an imprint that had gotten rubbed off and you're simply unable to read the label, then I would encourage you to have the pill sent in to be analyzed by a lab and/or to utilize a drug panel kit from a local pharmacy that can at least distinguish the presence of various controlled substances. Something else to keep in mind is that there are numerous over-the-counter supplements such as vitamins, minerals, melatonin, magnesium, etc. which are often just smooth pills with no imprints. Is there a score line on either side by chance?

I've suffered from insomnia for years. I was prescribed Rozerem recently and so far, it works. Directions are to take 30 minutes before bed. They do work! The only side effects mt doctor found were erratic menstruation. That I have not experienced yet. ## I have just started Rozerem and would like to know how others like it and what side effects they have had. ## I have also started taking Rozerem. I saw no results after two nights but the dr. said it took time to work and not to quit taking it. I don't find this statement in the drug company information. Meanwhile I am really tired after waking up every few hours last night. Anyone else given this advice? ## I have been taking it successfully for about a month with no side effects. Best wishs. Susan ## Rozerem has been shown to...

I've been taking zolpidem tartrate aka ambien for 11 years. As soon as the generic came out by Teva I noticed it does not put me to sleep at all. None of my meds have changed. Have you heard any complaints about the strength of Teva's zolpidem? ## Hello, Gi! How are you? Has there been any change? Is the marking TEVA 74? That should be the marking on their 10mg Zolpidem tablet. However, there can be fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredient from one generic to another. Under the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984, they are allowed to differ from the name brand by as much as plus or minus 20% and they don't have to measure against other generics, just the name brand. Thus, one could be slightly higher or lower in the amount of the active ingredient than another one. Though, s...

For over 50 years I struggled with this condition. I stuck it out with hard work and faking it. Now that I'm nearly 77, I cant go on anymore, but don't want to traumatize family that I see (not often)! In three years I lost my wife (2015), sister (2016), & both young nieces (2017- 2018). I had supported them all until death basically! I have been on psychotropic prescription drugs for 50 years, presently on three 1mg Xanax and two Effexor 150 mg. It's hell on earth! ## Are those the only medications you are currently on? I could be that you need to try a different medication, or a combination of them. Have you informed your doctor that this current combination just isn't working? You've been through a lot, so it is not surprising that you are feeling this way, yo...

I just came back from my doctor and was discharged for a urine screen that said I was positive for suboxone. I have never in my life taken suboxone. I do take melatontin..xanax..and percocet. Could any of these drugs cause this? ## Will melatonin cause someone to fail a drug test? I'm having trouble sleeping and have to test in a few days for parole. I'm thinking about taking melatonin to help but not sure if it will cause me to fail?

I have to do urine drug screens for work that DO test for Zolpidem. How long is it known to be detectable in the urine for? ## I have being talking zolpidem and I'm just worried about whether it can show up in a urine drug screen? I need to find out asap. I would like if u could help me... ## I am on several medications including (ambien) which I've been on for years, and the dr. All of a sudden wants me to get a urine and blood test. I guess to see if I'm taking my medication correctly, what I didn't know was. Does ambien and neurontin show up in/on a laboratory test. (Meaning not the standard dip-stick test) thank you for any input ## I purchased some fake zolpidem while in Mexico. Will this drug show up as zolpidem in my urine test?

If one day, we want to sleep calmly, but we are unable to sleep, can we take becalm 0.5 for that day to sleep 7 to 8 hrs calmly? ## I have becalm 0.5mg tablet and take it as a sleeping pill. ## Hey guys, I just got xanax/alprazolam from the most easy going and understanding Doc. Its trade name Becalm 0.5mg is made by Leeford healthcare ltd. from india. The doc said to take 1 in the morning but i couldn't wait so as soon as I was comfy at home I took one... And guys I've tried many brands and generic of alprazolam and I have to say that this is by far the best I've ever taken... I usually don't go for xanax cause it's just too mild in my opinion.. I prefer valium with klonopin. But this Becalm is really good. And guys, here in Malaysia one doesn't have many choice...

How long does it stay in your body before being excreted? ## This is a benzodiazepine that is most commonly used to treat anxiety, nervous disorders, and as a sedative. According to the Temazepam Half Life Calculator, the average half life of this drug is around 14 hours. Therefore, a single dose stays in your body for about a week before being completely eliminated.

I have MS and have been on Norco for 4 years. My dr. said I tested positive for Suboxone. I didn't know what that was. Melatonin is the only new thing in my system. Could this be possible? ## Can melatonin or meclizine cause a false positive for valum or atavan? ## I believe melatonin messes up a drug test. I had one the other day and it was positive for Gabapentin which I did not take. Why would I take gabapentin if I’m on suboxone? I have been reading the internet searching for answers ever since cause this is blowing my mind. The only thing I took in addition to my suboxone was melatonin.

When looking at it vertically, it has an indention running all the way around. It was found in my grandmother's (who was in a retirement home at the time) pill container that seperated her pills into morning noon and night. ## I found a small oval white gel capsule looking exactly as you described - no markings other than an indentation running lenghtwise around the capsule. I'd like to know what it is. ## Off-white oblong liquid-filled gel capsule, vertical indentation running lengthwise, with no markings is Nature's Bounty Melatonin ## Hello, Unfortunately the FDA requires that any regulated medication be identifiable by it's physical appearance (color, shape, imprint, size etc.) and because this pill does not have an imprint it is not likely that it is medication.

My daughter was given a hair test and it came back positive for methamphetamines.

I need to pass a urine test that is looking for abuse. I have back injury, PTSD resutiling from severe burns. These conditions are work related. I'm now in the position that I'm considered to be abusing these meds., which at times I take more than the dose perscribed just to get relief. My injuries are all work related. I have no where to turn. I've had PTSD since 7/11/11 and am on Valium, Hydrocodone, Butbital, Oxycodone and Ambien. I'm not permitted to take pain meds during work, so I take daily doses after work. The PTSD is so bad from burns that I get night terrors , severe migraines and amon edge , so I take Valium for anxiety. I'm on IVIG treatment once a month for JOBS syndrome, this makes my migraines worse, but I have not been hospitalized for MERSA of other...

I'm searching for a white sleeping pill, as I’m allergic to colored medication, but I also need a white pain pill to help with my pain. Any suggestions? ## What specifically are you allergic to? Can you post back and provide more details? Not all medications contain the same coloring agents, if any, since some obtain their color naturally from just the ingredients used. Additionally, are you looking for something via prescription, or over the counter? Have you tried asking your doctor, or pharmacist for assistance? I know there are many white pain pills available over the counter, including many Tylenol/Acetaminophen products. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and stomach irritation.

Hi. I have a couple of these round white tablets with a score line & no other marking on them. I was told they were xanax but im unsure; im in the united kingdom and without the markings they look like temazepam in size & color. Could you pls help me? ## In the words of the producers of hong kong fuey....."could be"....You'd have to be a child of the 70's to understand that cultural reference. The most mild mannered janitor ever was a super spy. So you have a couple of white tablets with nothing but a score and say nothing about their packaging. I'd suggest you steer well clear if you haven't got a clue what they are.....and you only have 2 tablets. I'm going with paracetamol.

May 20-26 I was in the hospital taking Ambien, ativan and cymbalta. Once I left the hospital I took my ambien sparingly. The ativan even less and no cymbalta at all. However on June 16 I took 1/2 10MG of Ambien. I had a saliva drug test that next morning and it came back as THC, Amphedimines and opiates. How did this happen?? ## Ambien contains the active ingredient Zolpidem and neither it nor the Cymbalta, which contains Duloxetine, are substances tested for on those types of tests and they are also not known to cause false positives for anything else. The Ativan contains Lorazepam, which is a Benzodiazepine and it is also not known to cause false positives. Where you taking anything else? Even over the counter products or something else they gave you in the hospital? ## The only other...
