i have a pill that's supposed to be morphine but every one.I've had had an M on.but these one has N instead and 30 on the other side and its purple and round ## You asked if the purple pills with the N on it was Morphine and the answer is Yes. It comes in different looks depending on the manufacture. It is a 30mg time released pill. I have been getting them for years now. ## Was this obtained/purchased in the U.S. or elsewhere? I can't find a Morphine tablet in the U.S. prescription drug databases with this marking. However, if it is a foreign medication, they are not required to log their imprints, like manufacturers in the U.S. must do. ## So was that the n 30 purple pill morphine? ## What are the 30 mg round purple pills with an N on the other side. Is it morphine sulphat...

HOW LONG DOES IT START WORKING, THE 30mg MORPHINE? ## The regular release or time released tablets will take about 20 to 30 minutes to start working. The instant release formulations work much faster. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and constipation.

Is the round white pill with 54/262 extended release morphine? ## 54/262 is immediate release morphine ## Hello, Sunshine and Andy! How are you? Just to clarify, this tablet is manufactured by Roxane Laboratories and they list it as containing 30mgs of Morphine in a regular release formulation, so it is neither time released, nor instant release. The FDA classifies this medication 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 I can help with? ## Hey this is Sunshine, the reason I was asking about the round white pill with the following, was I have always been use to the small purple 30mg extended release. When I got my prescription they were the small w...

Found in my car after friend used it need to know what it is . This is a thick but small white pill one side has the M 30 and the other side has the pf I'm just curious what's going on when my cares being used. ## Hello, Kay! How are you? If that is the correct marking, then it seems that this is a 30mg time released Morphine tablet called MS Contin, from which someone has soaked or sucked off the outer coating to possibly try to get the medication to release faster. The outer coating on it should be purple. This is 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?

Does anyone know if a round white with M in a box and a small 30 on the other side is a Roxy? ## Hello, Kelly! How are you? The M in a box is a logo used by Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals and they have two tablets that use this marking. One is blue with the M in a box one side and a small 30 above a score line on the other, which contains 30mgs of Oxycodone in a regular release formulation. The other one is a reddish purple with the M on one side and a large 30 on the other, with no scoring that contains 30mgs of Morphine in a time released formulation. Do either of these match the tablet in question? The FDA classifies this medication 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 const...
