multiVitamin with sight aids ## please also let me know what will happen in the future if i do not continue to take this medication. I am 46. I have had a dexa scan and that was fine. So I am not sure why I am taking this. I am also b12 diff and potass diff. any info would be helpful ## If you doctor recommended it or prescribed it, then your best bet would be to talk to them to discuss why you are taking it. None of us here can know why you were started on it and none of us can guess why you might still need it.

nephrovite ## I am a renal dietitian and was wondering if I could get NephroVite samples for the patients. Also, I was wanting to order a quantity of vitamins to have on hand for patients needing to buy vitamins. ## Sorry, this site does not supply or sell medications here, this is an informational website only. For samples, I would suggest contact the manufacturer of the item in question, they would the only ones who could provide them for you. As long as it is an over the counter item, then there wouldn't be any restrictions on your recommending it to patients or giving out samples.

nerves product by hylands ## The name is actually Hypericalm, it contains St. John's Wort. Since this is not a prescription drug nor regulated like one, information is now easy to find. I would suggest just researching St. John's Wort.

vitamin ## Sorry, this appears to be something from a foreign country, not available in the US, all the pages I found that mention it are in foreign languages. Foreign meds, both prescription and over the counter are not regulated under one entity like ours are, so I can't find any information on it.

pink capsule oval much like a vitamin e capsule ## I am not able to find this on 2 of the databases I looked for it on. Since it starts with an L chances are it is an over the counter generic tylenol type of medication, vitamin, or a medication made in another country. ## I am not finding it listed anywhere, either. However, since I do see L's with numbers before and after this, that are all over the counter products, it leads me to suspect that this is also an OTC product. ## Actually, there are still a few that are prescription drugs, not many though. ## I know, I was just going by the numbers though, most companies count consecutively when using the numbers on their pills or capsules, so it is a safe bet that if LNK makes 886 and 888 as over the counter products, then 887 more th...

peach colored large oblong tablet 16 93 ## are there any other imprints, such as a letter or more? I am not able to find this on any database, which probably means that it is an over the counter medication, possibly some type of a vitamin. ## the only inscriptions are 93 on one side and 16 on the other. I don't think it's a vitamin, and I've never seen any OTC pills that look like this. ## Perhaps you have never seen them but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I have checked several databases extensively, and it appears as if either they are not a prescription medication (at least from the US, maybe it's licensed somewhere else); or it is an old medication where those numbers are no longer being used. I did scan the old number databases too but could not find it...

medum size capsule ## Certainly there is a number and or letter on the orange medium size capsule. It is hard to figure out what it is without some of the identifying information. ## IF it is an OTC product such as some generics for Tyelnol or a vitamin supplement, it might not have a marking. There are no requirements for those to have unique IDs, like there are for prescription drugs. It does, however, make it impossible for us to positively identify it, unless the OP would take it to a lab and pay for them to test it. ## That's very true, but I even asked several pharmacist colleagues of mine to identify it and they couldn't. They helped me search the electronic PDR, but to no avail. We all agreed that it must be an OTC medication if there are no markings. I was thinking that...
