The pill is hot pink and it's the size of a mini m&m. It has the letters DW on one side and it's blank on the other. It is round. I do believe it's an over-the-counter drug. ## Hi Violet, I haven't found an exact match to your pill, but from what others have mentioned, I think it may be "Dulcolax for Women" (an over-the-counter laxative containing Bisacodyl). Someone else was told that their pink pill was a generic oxycodone 20mg tablet. However, Dulcolax for Women seems to make a lot more sense with the abbreviated imprint "DW"; seeing as they haven't confirmed oxycodone to be a possible match either. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Bisacodyl Details Can anyone else confirm this identification? ## That tiny hot pink pill with t...

What is this pill?... Tiny round pink pill with DW on one side no score ## A round pink pill imprinted with DW is reported on pillbox.nlm.nih.gov to be a "Dulcolax Pink" (Bisacodyl) 5mg delayed release tablet. Bisacodyl is a type of laxative that works directly on the colon to promote bowel movements. For verification, the size of this particular pill is listed as 6.00 millimeters and it's manufactured by Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals. I hope this helps!

my doctor tol;d me to take these tablets. i just want to know these medicines drug information. ## Hello, Shiju! How are you? The Ducolax is just a stool softener, to prevent constipation. The Aciloc contains the active ingredient Ranitidine, which is an antacid, it's used to treat or prevent conditions such as ulcers, GERD, heartburn and gastritis, which means it was likely given to prevent the stomach irritation that the Lyser can cause, since it contains the active ingredient Diclofenac, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. Unfortunately, I can't find any information on anything under the name Nidare. Can you please double check the name and spelling? Thanks!

I was instructed to take 4 tables and 268mg Miralax for my colon test which I did and then later in the evening I had a seizure and was transported to the hospital not knowing anything for several hours. I was in ICU for 2 days. Could this have been from the medication I took for test. They did MRI, and all kinds of tests but could not come up with an answer. I had never had a seizure in my life. ## Hello, Pat! How are you? Sorry about what happened to you. I doubt it could have been caused by the laxatives and if the doctors don't think so, then that also casts further doubt on it. But why did they have you prep with them, rather than just doing a regular bowel prep?

I have been taking two pills of Sulfameth Trimeth DS per day for the last 30 days. Can it cause constipation? ## Sulfameth/trimeth ds was prescribed to me for a staff infection in my right eye. I asked my doctor and pharmacist if it causes constipation. Their reply was no, but I am experiencing it. It makes my eyes sensitive to sunlight, and my left arm was twitching a little. I have head aches and I feel very fatigued. I just hope my bowels return to normal after this whole cycle is done with. ## Well, if you are taking the medication for 30days or more, you should not let the constipation last that long, it can be dangerous. You can try fiber tablets or stool softeners such as Dulcolax to get things moving again. In most cases, your doctor and pharmacist would be correct, antiobiotics...

orang round pill abg on front 60 on back ## The pill I have been trying to identify is a pill left outside of my door of my apartment on my mat. It is orange, round and has a underscored 086 on it in the middle. Can anyone help me figure out what this is. Maybe a neighbor lost it in my apartment complex and they need it. ## Are there any other markings, or just the 086? ## Just an underscore underneath it, nothing on the back side ## That would be an over the counter generic for Dulcolax. ## As for the original topic posted here, Orange ABG 60 is Morphine Sulfate CR 60 mg. Are there any other questions or information to share? Please post back if there is... ## Thanks Roy, things have been crazy recently and I missed answering that. ## Thank you, Im sure thats all it was, and I really a...
