Large white tablet 70/N imprint: Metformin 500mg - antidiabetic tablet small round tablet WPI 339: Diclofenac 75mg- NSAID (same class as ibuprofen) Small white round tablet 2 scores/K3 imprint - promethazine 25mg-antiemetic/anti-nausea Small blue tablet M D6 imprint - Dicyclomine 20mg -for IBS (irritable bowel syndrome- anticholinergic) Small tablet 13mm - If its a legit tablet, must have an imprint by law Your friend the nurse has no idea what she is talking about and I would advise her not to speculate or self-identify drugs with which she is unfamiliar. All FDA approved drugs manufactured are required to have imprints for identification which are accessed online for healthcare professionals. The web is obviously the most accurate exchange of current health care information and is utilized by physicians and pharmacists daily to ensure proper patient care from relevant primary data base sources.

I would never take a pill until I knew positively what it is. Due to the varying possibilities of adverse reactions. Such as[ an allergy,sensitivity,even death etc,etc.] Here are two web to maybe help you or call your local pharmacist or poison control center.

NEVER TAKE SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, ESPECIALLY IF IT WAS NOT PRESCRIBED TO YOU! That's how all these kids are dying from popping pills that they think are Ecstacy. You should flush it down the toilet, it could be a fatal mistake to do something like this.
