Codeine In Mexico

Can anyone identify this pill. It small round pill that is pink or peach colored with darker peach specs in the pill. One side is scored once. The other side has an imprint of a long slender d, a short c, and another long slender h. dch There is a imprint of a beaker/flask above the c and it's all surrounded by a circle. We think it might be codeine but not sure. Would like to know what it is. Thanks.

A pharmacist in Mexico told me that codeine was no longer available there. True??

Pill is from Mexico round white pill RGM on one side and A025 on the other side. I got it from a pharmacy in Mexico and they said it was codeine 60 mg. I can't find it nowhere on any site do I know what it is? ## Hi makayla, Based on my research, I am led to believe that it is a 60mg codeine phosphate pill manufactured by Crescent Pharmaceuticals. It's not 100% definitive yet, but their 60mg tablets are described as follows: white, round, tablet with A025 engraved on one side and the company logo on the other. I haven't actually seen an image of the pill, but I'm assuming their company logo involves RGM since some of those letters are included as a part of their company's address (Overton Basingstoke, Hampshire RG25 3ED)... the only discrepancy I'm finding is tha...

is this medication available in Latin America? if so in what countries and under what name. thanks ## Fiorinal with Codeine contains the following active ingredients: Butalbital + Aspirin + Caffeine + Codeine Phosphate These types of medications are usually available in other countries like Mexico; although they are often given different brand names that can be rather difficult to find for those who don't understand Spanish. It seems to me like an easier option would be to just get it in the US with a doctor's prescription, then take it with you if you happen to be traveling abroad. The prescription should speak for itself if you are concerned about customs. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Fiorinal Details Does anyone else know about the availability of this m...

I have these capsules that are all white and have the letters,"JSC" on them. They're from Mexico and they're supposed to be 50 milligram Codeine phosphate capsules. Does anybody know anything about them? ## Tylex CD - Just got these factory sealed in Mexico with a prescription. 500mg Tylenol + 30 mg Codeine. Made by Janssen-Claig. So they're the same as t3's here in the states. ## @serapeum, You had mentioned that you got these from Mexico. Do you still have the contact info for the pharmacy you bought them at? If so, that would probably be the next step I'd take towards verification. Another thing that I've heard others on here recommend is to use one of those drug panel kits (available at head shops) to determine if the contents are positive for opiates...

Mexico pharmacies are faking a NUMBER of pills. A HUGE AMOUNT OF THEM are taking bottles of other medications and putting fake stickers on the bottles and selling them as other medications. For example, they take stickers of bottles of flexeril/Cyclobenzaprine and sell them as ambien! I brought a bottle back and had them tested by labs. They tested for what I thought! Cyclobenzaprine! They tried to sell me codeine, which was in fact tramadol! They also tried selling fake lortab, vicoden, etc. I didn't see those pills as I did not need them, but the stickers looked the same. The fake stickers look just like this pic. They keep a lot of fakes under the counter in a basket. So if they pull something out of a basket, not in a case, BEWARE. Know what you are getting in mexico, because I ...

Tylex cd, just got these factory sealed .made by janssen-cilag in mexico 500mg paracetamol 30mg codeine , so basically t3's here in the states ## Hi Mike, Just curious, does this require a prescription down in Mexico or do pharmacies there dispense standard pharmaceuticals over the counter? I realize they treat medications totally different in other countries and with ever-rising drug costs here in the US I can only imagine how many Americans travel south for more affordable treatment options. Also, I read that Janssen-Cilag is a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson pharmaceuticals; who's headquarters are based at: Canoa 79, 01090 Ciudad de México, Ciudad de México - so they do appear to be a legitimate drug manufacturer. If anyone is looking to verify their medication,...

it is a pain med from mexico??? ## Afriend of mine just returned from Mexio after having her teeth pulled and dentures made. The Dr. gave her Dorixina for pain and we were wondering, 1. what is in it 2. is there any equivilent here in the U.S. if so , What is it?? ## I was given Dorixina by an MD and relative in Colombia for migraines. I just found info in spanish on the web: it is a non-narcotic analgesic with no side-effects, and can be used with various types of pain (not just migraines). It is a much better choice than hydrocodone/codeine type meds which I have had to take a lot, so I'm very glad to find out about this although apparently it's not available in the US (no doubt for BIG PHARM reasons, since my sample is produced by Roemmers, in Venezuela). From what I've r...

Trying to figure out what this pill is from a photo. Doesn't seem to have any markings on it but might be on the other side of the pill, however there are multiple pills in the photo and no markings on any of them. It seems to be a dark blue/purple color on half and the other half is cream tinted white. If you have any idea what this could be please help!! I don't believe the person who posted the photo is taking it for medical reasons so I'd also like to know if it might be a street drug?? Thank you ## Sounds like the same ones I got while in Mexico. They are tylenol/codeine. ## Mexican ultram/tramadol. Its a non opiod pain med used alot more since opiods are strongly abused. ## I see each of the last two posts are stating that this is something different than what the othe...

Found a Dark purple (half) and white (half) capsule no imprint. Anyone have a clue what this is? ## If there are no markings, it will most likely be difficult to narrow down what it contains. We can rule it out as being a U.S. approved and manufactured prescription product, since they are all required to have imprints to enable their identification. The greatest likelihood is that it's something available over the counter. However, there is also a chance that it could be something specially done by a compounding pharmacy, since they also use blank capsules, or it could be a foreign medication. Does anyone else recognize this capsule? ## Thank you for the info. ## This is Tylenol/codeine from Mexico most probably. ## Women's Thrive level capsule. Purple and white no markings. ## ...

I am taking vicodin. In Mexico I bought Tylex CD & Lertus CD. Are they the same strength as vicodin? ## fgjhgfhgfhgf ## to the 2nd poster. you are taking some very dangerous drugs. your baby may suffer birth defects and withdrawl syndrome from the Alprax use. I suggest you see a doctor ASAP! ## Shelly, the Vicodin contains Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone. Tylex-CD contains Acetaminophen and Codeine and the Lertus--CD is llisted as containing Diclofenac and Codeine, so these are all different medications. The Codeine is still a narcotic, but the dosage and safe amount you can take in a day can be quite different. Do you have the dosage information on any of them?

These pills are GOOD! I just got a prescription from mexico (50mg of codeine). I only took half tho cuz 50mg of codeine is a lot to take at one time. It worked great for several hours. ## Just wanted to post the medication dosing guidelines for Codeine, in case you didn't know: "The usual adult dosage for tablets is 15 mg to 60 mg repeated up to every four hours as needed for pain. The maximum 24 hour dose is 360 mg." "Adult doses of codeine higher than 60 mg fail to give commensurate relief of pain and are associated with an appreciably increased incidence of undesirable side effects." "When the patient no longer requires therapy with codeine sulfate, doses should be tapered gradually to prevent signs and symptoms of withdrawal in the physically dependent patien...

Flat pack white tablets Tylex on one side 750 on other side of tablet ## I used this drug in Costa Rica and worked very well for pain;I would like to know where can purchase more of the same;Can't buy it here in California. ## YOU CAN PURCHASE THIS MEDICINE IN TIJUANA NO RX REQUIRED AND NO PROBLEMS FOR IMMIGRATION ## The reason Tylex can't be purchases here is because it contains Acetaminophen and Codeine, a combination which isn't available over the counter in the U.S. In most countries, low dose Codeine products are available over the counter and that includes Canada and Mexico. However, since there is a potential for it to be habit forming, since it is a mild narcotic, the U.S. FDA has not approved such here.

Is anyone familiar with a compound that contains Naproxen and Carisoprodol? ## Soma does not contain Naproxen, it only contains the muscle relaxant Carisoprodol. There is a Soma Compound that contains Aspirin and Carisoprodol, but none listed contain Naproxen. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and headache. ## Can you buy Naproxen/carisoprodol 250mg in the United States or Canada over the counter? Or is a prescription required? ## No, this product is not sold in the United States, but it is real and made in Mexico. Here in the U.S. you could buy Soma compound with Codeine or with Aspirin if your Doctor so chooses.
