Red Pill Capsule No Imprint

Trying to identify a red capsule with no imprint, having brownish powder inside. ## Hello, David! How are you?? With no imprint, we can rule it out as being a manufactured prescription medication, since they are all required to have unique imprints to enable their identification and compounding pharmacies use plain capsules. That means that this is most likely an over the counter product of some type. Where was it found? Some over the counter products are regional, so knowing the general location may help to narrow it down. I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you. ## I got a similar capsule from Walmart in Reno, Nevada. ## I have red and white capsules with no imprint that are supposed to be Ibuprofen 800mg. Is anyone able to confirm?

This was found at a middle school and we are trying to identify it. It is a hard red plastic with the letters c-day on it solid red and when cut open it had a liquid in it that smelled like a medicine ie cough ## Hello, Susan! How are you? This is called C-Day, it's Coricidin high blood pressure multi-symptom cold for daytime use, it contains 10mgs of Dextromethorphan and 200mgs of Guaifenesin. It is available over the counter and is used to treat cold symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with?

Long red with no markings or numbers on it ## With no markings, it is most likely something that's available over the counter. All manufactured prescription drug products in the U.S. have to have unique imprints to enable their identification, so we can rule it out as being one of them. Learn more OTC drug details here. There is also a small chance that it may be a foreign medication. Where was it found? The general location may help to narrow it down.

Red and yellow capsule - NO imprint at all. Maybe an antibiotic or Cipro...... ## I don't think this pill was manufactured in the U.S., as it has no letter or number imprints. U.S. law requires that all prescription drugs have unique letters or numbers (sometimes in addition to a logo of some kind) imprinted on the tablets or capsules so the medication can be identified by manufacturer, substance and dosage. However, the way a pill looks is entirely up to the whit and whim of the company making it, so there could be many, many pills on the market, both over the counter or prescription that could meet that physical description. Unless you obtained this pill on the street, the only other thing I can suggest is that you try asking your local doctor or pharmacist for more information.

I've heard red and white capsules no imprint are 30 mg roxicodones? ## Honestly, it would largely depend on the country of origin of the pill. Reason being is that U.S. law requires all prescription drugs to have some sort of marking or imprint on the tablet to identify the substance and dosage. Without that, it could literally be anything from a dietary supplement, OTC med, illicit drug, or even something foreign. Whereabouts did you find it? ## I bought what was supposed to be a dietary supplement called Garcia Cambogia, but when I got it in the mail, it had no seal, and the bottle was so full when I opened it, the pills were popping out. I looked up the description of what they were supposed to be & it's nothing like these. I opened 1 of the capsules & it has an off w...

Red/gray pill. Oblong like capsule but not an actual capsule. It's broke in half with just the red side and very little of the gray side. The red side has imprint in black either the letter "O" or the number "0". Any ideas? ## Hi Scias, Unfortunately, since the entire pill isn't showing.. neither is the imprint which is vital to verifying the pill's identity. I found a number of red/grey capsules with an imprint including the letter O. One of the capsules I located is, Principen which contains (500 mg) of ampicillin. It is a red/grey capsule with the imprint BRISTOL 7993 (in black letters) on each side. Manufacturer: Bristol-Myers Squibb Ampicillin is closely related to amoxicillin, another type of penicillin, and both are used to treat urinary tract infectio...

I have a baggy with little red and white capsules with an imprint of 5 on one side and L on the other. I think it's Tylenol but exactly what type, I'm not sure.

I recently found a baggy of of large red & white capsules with no imprint hidden in my teens closet. There were an even 90 capsules in the bag. He is out of town with a friend this week and we would like to identify before confronting him. My search on pill identifyer sites reveals nothing as most pharma meds must have a identifyer number, etc. These are just large red & white capsules. I want to believe they are some form of supplement he may be using for weight or sports training but identifying supplements appears impossible. The fact that there are exactly 90 capsules also leads me toward a supplement. Is there any local way to have the contents checked in a lab? Local law? Pharmacist? ## If you find a lab nearby and pay them to test them, that would probably be your only so...

red capsule with imprint GG 643. My friend takes it in one of those pill day of the week things given to him by his wife. He was crushed in a mine accident. He takes pain, depression, sleep and more everyday. But I found all of his medicine but this red capsule with GG 643 on it. He takes it but he doesn't even know what it is. So I was trying to help him. Thanks ## Is it possible that marking is GG 634 and one of you transposed the numbers? I found this: This tablet contains 100mgs of Amantadine (NDC 54569-0084 ). Inactive Ingredients: - Starch, Corn - Croscarmellose Sodium - Ethylcellulose (7 Mpa.s) - Fd&c Blue No. 1 - Fd&c Red No. 40 - Gelatin - Magnesium Stearate - Methylparaben - Cellulose, Microcrystalline - Propylparaben - Sodium Lauryl Sulfate - Titanium Dioxide

Small oblong caplet white with red/pink speckles no imprint no opportunity to cut in half looks old. Found in deceased mother's medcine cabinent ## Because there's no markings, it is going to be difficult to determine what this tablet contains, unless you were to pay to have it lab tested, somewhere. U.S. law requires that all prescription drugs have a unique imprint on the tablets or capsules so the medication can be identified by manufacturer, substance and dosage.

found these capsules in with other pills. a large white capsule no imprint & a smaller red capsule also with no imprint. white one has white powder in it ## If there are no imprints, it's going to be difficult to narrow down what these contain. We can rule them out as being U.S. prescription medications, since they are all required to have imprints to enable their identification. However, they could be over the counter products or even foreign medications. Were they found in the U.S. or elsewhere?

What is a red capsule with a white stripe in the middle with a L above stripe and a 2 below the stripe? ## I found a red capsule with a white stripe in the middle. The letter L on one side and the number 2 on the other. Can anyone please tell me what this is? I see a few people have asked the same question. ## Is it an actual capsule or would it be considered a caplet? If it is a caplet with this marking, then it appears to contain 500mgs of Acetaminophen and is a generic or store brand of Tylenol Rapid Release, commonly used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Common side effects can include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and stomach irritation. Learn more: ## I found one and it was walgreens tension headache relief (acetaminophen 500mg and caffeine 65mg).

I have a red unmarked capsule. Was told it's a 15mg hydrocodone. They said they had to be special made. Is this true? Is it a 15mg or could it be more? ## Hello, Rose! How are you? It is possible, but short of testing the contents of the capsule there is no way to be sure. A doctor can order a special formulation of any given prescription medication, which would then need to be made by a compounding pharmacy, but in general, they use plain white or clear, unmarked capsules. The FDA classifies Hydrocodone as a narcotic analgesic and lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there a compounding pharmacy in your area?

My friend has an alleged 30mg Adderall that has no imprint and is a sky blue and dark red gel capsule. Thoughts? ## By law, the FDA requires all manufactured medications to have an imprint on them to enable their identification, in case of emergency. Thus, in the U.S., if there is no imprint, it is most likely that a blank tablet, or capsule is an over the counter product, since they are not required to have imprints. However, there is a small chance that it could have been something created by a compounding pharmacy, or it could be some type of foreign medication, in which case there is no way to be certain what it contains. The FDA warns that Adderall carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, insomnia, mood swings, and anorexia. Is ...

I found these while cleaning out a wrecked car. Would like to know what they are.
