White Oblong Tablet Cl 20
Please identify the following: White Oblong Tablet with imprint Cl 20 on one side, no other imprints on the otherside except a transverse line at the midsection. ## I'm sorry, but I can't find any listings for this in our U.S. prescription drug resources. This leads me to suspect that it may be something that is available over the counter, though there is also a small chance that it may be a foreign medication. Do you happen to know its country of origin? ## methenamine hippurate, 1 gram County Line Pharmaceuticals ## This is correct. It's generic for Hiprex.
