Found a pill?

I found a strange pill on my living room floor.
It's really tiny and white.
Oval to diamond shaped.
With 284W on one side.
rph on the other side.

It's nothing that I or my husband take. Were thinking one of our guests dropped it. Were really wish they would have been more careful, as we have pets.

If any one could make a good guess what it could be I would appreciate it.

All i can find with a marking 284 is an expectorant called Phenylephrine, unfortunately everywhere i have access to does not have a photo of the pill so this is imposible to confirm, all it says is it's a small oblong white tablet.

Definately toss it, its most likely a cold medication but its impossible to be sure.

guaifenesin, hydrocodone, and phenylephrine Drug Information

If this is nothing you or your husband take, then please take this pill to your local Emergency Room or pharmacy for disposal. You could have one of the following:

1. Corzide 80/5 Tablet (5 mg;80 mg) 284 biconvex round scored blue-speckled white (this is a beta blocker used as an antihypertensive drug)

2 Corzide 80/5 Tablet (5 mg;80 mg) no longer marketed in the US CORZIDE 80/5 BL 284 biconvex round scored blue-speckled white

3 Corzide 80/5 Tablet (5 mg;80 mg) no longer marketed in the US CORZIDE 80/5 BL 284 biconvex round scored blue-speckled white

4 GFN 1200/Phenylephrine 40 Extended-Release Tablet (1200 mg;40 mg) CYP 284 oblong scored white

5 Isoxsuprine Tablet (20 mg) GG 284 round scored white (Possibly Effective:

Take it a safe place and have a professional dispose of whatever it is.
