round white pill weird pe symbol on it

What is this small round white pill scored on one side .Other side has what looks to be a P inside a circle with an e outside of it ? ## Hi Tom, Just wondering out of curiosity where you found this pill at, because I'm not locating any matches to it online given the details provided?

I hope this helps! ## I also have some of these pills...I was told they were oxy 5mg however they do the opposite to my mind and body! Any one know what these small white pills are with what appears to be a P in the middle of several ci...
