Syntex

light blue oval pill with nothing on one side, and syntex on the other side, any ideas what this pill is? ## Found a match it's Anaprox 550 mg, which is used for the reduction of moderate to severe pain, fever, inflammation and stiffness caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, gout, ankylosing spondylitis, menstrual cramps, tendinitis, bursitis, and the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea.

blue oval tablet ## I found a blue oval tablet marked syntex on one side and 274 on the other. Can't seem to find a straight answer what it is for. ## Allscripts lists that they manufactured a tablet matching this description, which they list as containing 275mgs of Naproxen, it is a generic for Aleve that is used to treat pain, fever, and swelling. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including increased risk of bleeding, stomach irritation, headache, and nausea. Are there any questions? ## What is this pill used for and what is it made up of

I found a round yellowish pill in my daughter's room and on one side it says "syntex" and the other had the number 272. Can you please tell me what it is? I can't find any credible information. Thank you. ## Hmmm, I wish I had a more detailed response for you at this point, but I am guessing that it is a foreign medication. The reason is because all prescription drugs manufactured in the U.S. are required to have unique imprint codes and are readily available in domestic databases. Either that, or it could also be an over the counter product - but I am leaning more towards a foreign medication because the manufacturer name Syntex 273 is reportedly Naproxen 375 mg, which is used for pain relief but it is not a narcotic. As far as the marking which you reported, nothing el...

My g-pa bought an old house and I was going through the attic and I found a big box of old pills from the 1960s -late 80s.I found the same bottle of pills but I cant really read the label and the pills are round,light yellow SYNTEX on one side and the other has a line in the middle with the numbers 272 on them.I cant find anything on this pill. ## So far, I've been unable to find anything that matches this description. It seems these are something that was discontinued, so finding an ID may take some digging. Does anyone else recognize these? ## I put pills in pill bags for my pocket. Found this misplaced pill and can’t remember what it is. It’s discontinued but hoping someone remembers it. Thanks

blue oval 274 on one side, syntex on the other---is not scored ## Blue Oval 274 On One Side, Syntex On ## There is a 275mg Naproxen tablet manufactured by Allscripts that matches this description. It is a generic for Aleve. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach irritation, and increased risk of bleeding. Is there anything else I can help with?

syntex on one side 274 on the other//blue oval pill ## Hello, Venom! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Allscripts and they list it as containing 275mgs of Naproxen. The FDA classifies this medication as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

yellow round pill 272 on one side syntex on the other ## Are you certain that 272 is the correct number? There is no listing for a pill with this marking and this company DOES NOT make any narcotics. ## What is Syntex 272 used for? ## A yellowish round pill with syntex on one side and 272 on the othe is Naprosyn 250mg

pill, rectangle shape with round ends. on one side it says syntex and nothing on the other side. ## Syntex is the manufacture, they make a lot of Mexican drug products. Naproxen and Paracetamol/Acetaminophen is the combination you mentioned. This is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory combo used to treat pain and swelling. Acetaminophen is actually not directly classified as such, in the U.S., but it is similar enough that the FDA will not allow these medications to be combined into one product, here, due to the dangers. Side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and stomach irritation. Read more: Do you have any other questions? ## How many mg of acetaminophen is contained in a capsule of Naproxeno sodico 550 mg? I suffer from arthritis and take 1 daily but I bruise so easily.

i need EXACT replacement, dosage, for Estratest HS. EXACT. thanks for any help. ## The exact replacement is a new product called Covaryx. It has the same active ingredients as Estratest. This was according to Centrix Pharmaceuticals. ## This whole thing is so strange. Costco would not fill my script for Estratest, or any generic, but Krogers would. I don't know what is going on with this stuff. I know Syntex is a replacement but as far as I can tell, it is unavailable. I have read from the company that the generic will be available soon, it is a matter of reclassifying the drug as a controlled substance because of the testosterone and the abuse of it by men looking for steroids. Thanks for your answer.... ## yeah, and since that is not a generic, i bet it costs a fortune. not that w...
