little blue oval pill with 44386 on front ## help ## I have reason to believe that a light blue oval pill with the imprint 44 386 is a over the counter Unisom tablet ## Jayson is correct. THe pills marked with a 44 are manufactured by LNK International and they do not make any prescription drugs, only over the counter items. So this is a generic or store brand of Unisom. ## I called LNK International and they stated its 25mg Doxylamine Succinate (common name Unisom) and its over the counter. ## Well, I guess we all agree. Since I work for this site, I subscribe to a professional database that lets me look up pills according to their imprint, that way I can help those seeking medication information or IDs and ensure that they get accurate and up to date information! ## in addition to the...

Walgreens in Georgia orders 100 capsules for me every three months. Must be careful with this Rx, however it works better than anything available for insomnia. It is definitely available. Most younger pharmacists have never heard of it and the older pharmacists know it but "haven't had a script in 30 years for Seconal". The new company that purchased rights to produce Seconal (Valliant) has been under fire for hiking the price to sometimes over 4000.00/100 capsules in this EIGHTY year old drug. This is insane. It is used in Oregon and California for assisted suicide and apparently works very well. Regardless, for an insomniac, nothing works better than carefully used Seconal. It has been vilified to the point physicians are scared to prescribe. So silly. ## One should be car...

Found tiny (like gravol but a bit smaller and noticeably thinner) white pill with a star imprint but looks to have tiny circle within the star. Think 4 sided throwing ninja star type lol with tiny circle within. (Not 5 pointed ? but morning star just 4 points) On rear is a line. Found next to round orange centaur pill. I dont know how many mgs the centaur pill is. Which someone else said is like ambien (Xanax). Im not 100% sure. Would appreciate to know the name of each and mg. Please and thanks very much. ## RE: "someone else said is like ambien (Xanax)" First off, I just have to inform you that Ambien and Xanax are NOT the same drug; so whoever told you this pill is Ambien (Xanax) may intentionally be misleading you and I stay as far away from this person as possible. - Ambien...

I am looking for a doctor in the NJ area who has prescribed Seconal for insomnia. I have tried everything else with no luck. I am sleeping about 2 hours a day. Does anyone know of any doctors in this area that have prescribed this medication? Thank you!

Seconal was RX'ed in the 1960-70's . A lot of people died from OD's and auto accidents. It is still used for people that have tried everything to sleep but nothing works. I dont know why it bothers you so much that a few patients are getting them. Unless your a doctor its not something your qualified to answer

I have a white round pill with no printing on either side, what is it? ## If there are no markings, it is going to be difficult to determine exactly what this contains. We can rule it out as being a U.S. prescription medication, because they are all required, by federal law, to have markings to enable their identification, in case of emergency. However, it could be any one of a large number of over the counter items and there is also a chance that it could be a foreign medication. Was it found in the U.S.? ## Definatly melatonin over the counter pills. Get a good night sleep. ## I have a bunch I found in my daughter's backpack and they are Vitamin B12 but they are prescribed by her Dr. And the prescription was filled at Cox's pharmacy. ## I have a small white pill with nothing o...

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.

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?

what's the shelf-life of old seconal tablets? ## Shelf life of Seconal is 60 months. Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do. ## In my experience, expired Seconal was 100 percent good. I've taken expired 60s even 50s of Secobarb / Seconal and it's like nothing changed period.

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.

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.
