I need to know if this type of pill is harmful to a toddler. ## First of all, I would like to stress that if you think your child has gotten hold of a medication of some type, please DO NOT post on a free website and wait for an answer. You should ALWAYS contact your doctor or nearest ER facility to be on the safe side. That said, L485 is a generic or store brand of Tums, a chewable antacid containing 500mgs of Calcium Carbonate. So, unless they ingested a lot of them, it is probably not dangerous, but this site is not medical professionals and you should contact your doctor to be certain. Have you talked to your doctor, yet? ## No, my child didn't ingest this. He found it on the floor in our hotel room & I wanted to let them know they hadn't cleaned the room like they shoul...

Rolaids and tums don't help ## Mucinex DM contains Dextromethorphan and Guaifenesin, this is used to treat cold and allergy symptoms.

fairly large with 90 degree edges ## Found a pill G 127 on daughter. What is it? ## This one took some tracking down, because it is an over the counter item and the company has just recently switched to this imprint from their prior one of GDC. This is a generic or store brand of Tums containing Calcium Carbonate, which is used to treat heartburn, acid indigestion and similar conditions. So nothing to really worry about.

Found a large, round, speckled orangish or peach-colored tablet in my son's room. What is it. On one side it states L026 ## i founa a l026 pill in a 12 pack of sam adams ## This is an generic brand of antacid, comparable to Tums. You can buy them at Costco. ## Yes, pills marked with an L are mostly all over the counter medications made by LNK International. They make only over the counter drugs that are sold by many stores as generics or store brands. I have two bottles with these in them, both the same thing and same markings, generic for Tums. One is the Eckerd brand and one the Wal-Mart generic.
