I took Pyrobenzamine in the 1950's. It was manufactured by Ciba and each little green pill was scored for easier halving and had the word CIBA etched into it.

It does not appear so, I cannot find it listed in any prescription drug databases or formularies.

Sorry, but your description will not really help much, there are no proprietary guidelines in the pharmaceutical industry for colors or shapes of pills. Therefore, there are tons of pills on the market that are round and green, and each one made by a different company will be something different.

That said, I am not finding any current information on this drug, so my guess would be that it is no longer available.

I was given pyrobenzamine as a kid for rose fever - I think it was in the 40's. It worked like a charm - and I only had to take 1/2 tablet (green) 2 to 6 times and the incessant sneezing, swollen, closed shut eyes, cleared up! A prescription lasted forever. Recently when I went in to ask a pharmacist about pyrobenzamine, I was looked at like I was crazy!
