Propoxyphene is no longer sold in India or anywhere for that matter, as it has been proven to cause heart problems. Darvon/Darvocet is manufactured in India by a number of major pharmaceutical companies there. It's formula includes Paracetemol which is equivalent to acetaminophen, but more potent as an analgesic and less toxic, and also includes in the new formula, tramadol, also a pain reliever. It is manufactured to exactly resemble the same capsule that previously was sold as Darvon, and is very popularly sold and seems more effective. ## I'm sorry, but that is incorrect, there is no difference between Paracetamol and Acetaminophen, they are exactly the same.

5111 v ## Pill Image This is Propoxyphene 50mgs and Acetaminophen 325mgs, a generic for Darvocet, the lowest strength. So it is a narcotic pain reliever for mild pain, it can also be dangerous if you haven't taken it before, because the Propoxyphene is a cardio-toxic agent, they are currently trying to get these removed from the market because of all the accidental deaths they have caused. ## I found a pill in my couch it is red/orange oblong with a slit down the middle and it has some sort of logo that looks kind of like a flower, like three little designs and and 07 ive looked but I cant figure out what it is.
