Plz help what is this??? ## Hi Rae, Based on the description provided, the closest match I'm finding is a round white pill marked with "G" over "421" on one side, and blank on the other. There is also a horizontal score line on the side with the markings. This particular pill is identified as a 2.5mg Midodrine HCl tablet; which is used to treat hypotension. If there is in fact a "C" on your pill as well, then I'm not sure what it might be... but if you could please double check the imprint that would be great. NOTE: the size of the pill is also supposed to be approximately 7.00 mm I hope this info helps!

My small child picked up a pill on the floor of a restaurant today. It is round, flat and orange with a stylized letter E or G (like a logo design) and the number 43 underneath it. The other side has a cut line in the center to enable someone to break the pill in half. I worry that it could be a pill that is harmful to handle. ## Located a match to a round pill with E 43 on it, it's Midodrine HCl 5 mg. Midodrine is indicated for the treatment of symptomatic orthostatic hypotension. To learn more click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add?

I think the manufacturer is either EON or Sandoz because of the odd looking E on the imprni code it is a small round tablet, light yellow with the imprint code on one side and score marks on the other. I think it may be either the brand or generic form of midodrine but I can't say for sure
