Orange Headache Pill

medum size capsule

REPORT

Certainly there is a number and or letter on the orange medium size capsule. It is hard to figure out what it is without some of the identifying information.

IF it is an OTC product such as some generics for Tyelnol or a vitamin supplement, it might not have a marking. There are no requirements for those to have unique IDs, like there are for prescription drugs.

It does, however, make it impossible for us to positively identify it, unless the OP would take it to a lab and pay for them to test it.

That's very true, but I even asked several pharmacist colleagues of mine to identify it and they couldn't. They helped me search the electronic PDR, but to no avail. We all agreed that it must be an OTC medication if there are no markings. I was thinking that perhaps the person who was asking what the capsule was just didn't realize it was important to list any and all markings. I do know that vitamin C comes in an orange capsule, (I can't remember which brand that is though!)

It could also be a foreign med, they do not have the same requirements as prescriptions made in the US, because the FDA has no jurisdiction over them.


There are also some generic Advils that come unmarked in orange capsule form.

By the way, we do get a lot of people that do not read the instructions, that I specifically begged the site owner to post, asking for a full description, including imprint, so it is hard to say.

Some people thing all pills with the same ingredient look the same, I also have had people who thought the RX# on the bottle from their pharmacy was universal and would enable me to ID something.

I get tired of typing the explanations and requests for more info, sometimes.

I hear you, but I made the same mistake the first time around. You were quick to correct me. I don't think I've done it again!

We all make errors now and then. I made a few when I first started IDing pills, takes a bit to get the hang of it, and learn how to find them!
