the tablet is a prescription strength 550 mg naproxen sodium made by able labs (basically a generic double strength aleve). the other answer about the recall is correct although the recall may not have been for that lot. regardless, crush it and flush it!!!

Try this website. The measurement of the tablet in millimeter has to be given.

This pill has been recalled. Impurities have been found that can react with other medications and can result in cardiac failure.

The best thing to do is ask your doctor or pharmacist.
You can try the site I've listed as a source, also. Good luck, and be careful!

Throw it out. It's dangerous to keep pills around when you don't even know what they are.

try this:
http://www.drugs.com/pill_identification.html
you select the description and the search wizard tries to find it for you.
I'd still throw it out, though. Even if you find out what it is, you still have no idea how old it is.
Good luck!!

did u just find it on the ground or do you have a whole bottle? maybe go to a pharmisist or call a doctor. not even your doctor, it can be a hotline doctor or somethinglike that. my family usually gets a painkiller that sort of looks like that and its an offbrand of tylenol, but idk.
