Hello, Jc! How are you?

Under current U.S. prescription drug laws, all manufactured tablets and capsules must have markings on them that enable them to be identified in case of emergency. For example, say someone is found unconscious with pills strewn around them, the paramedics would need to know what they had taken in order to provide proper treatment and they can find out, by looking at the markings on the pills and checking in the databases to see what they contained.

Another example would be in case of product contamination, then the medications needs to be able to be traced back to a specific manufacturer, in order to rectify the problem and initiate a possible recall.

There is no listed tablet that just has M 325 on it.

However, when I look up the one with the M367 marking, it tells me that it is manufactured by Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals and contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen.

The FDA classifies it as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
