White Capsule With Grey Cap...no Markings

Updated

I found some capsules, they are white with grey caps, there are no numbers, letters or markings of any kind. Does this mean that they are not a prescription or illegeall drug...perhaps just a suppliment of some sort???

i've been prescribed 90MG.MORPHINE SUL ER capsules, which used to be all white caps. with no markings, now the pharmacy refilled my prescription, & they are GREY & OFF-WHITE CAPS.with no markings,if it's the same as what you have :it's a very strong narcotic to relieve pain & i'm only prescribed for them because I'm terminal, with liver failure.

I found some capsules that are Gray and off white. The contents of the capsules are a solid capsule shape. It is a very dark brown almost black. Have any idea what they could be. They were in my son's room. He says they are a laxative but I have never seen anything like these.

Hello,

You are correct in thinking that all prescription medication is required by the FDA to have an imprint or marking on it. One of the reasons for this is to identify a medication in the event of an allergic reaction or overdose.

The pill that you found could be a number of things, since it's a capsule it could be a prescription medication that has had an ink marking scratched/wiped off, a supplement, a vitamin or even a dietary pill. A big issue with identifying capsules is that you can purchase them legally and fill them with your own ingredients. This makes it extremely difficult to identify pills that are not marked since they could quite literally be filled with anything.

On the non legal side of things it could also be an illegal substance that is being sold in the form of capsules.

The only real way to identify the contents of the capsule is to have them analyzed by a professional. Depending on your area you might be able to take them to your pharmacy and see if they will do the analysis for you and if that doesn't work there are a number of websites online you can find that will let you send in the pills.

If you would rather not identify the pill you could always just dispose of the capsules at your nearest drug drop-off which will be located at a hospital or pharmacy.

I hope this information helps and you have a wonderful day.
