I found these green capsules that have sl
406 imprinted on them and I'm afraid that my kids may have taken them. Can you help me find out what they are??

Is it round? I did find a green round pill with the imprint 5406 - that could be HCTZ, which lowers blood pressure. When you find a pill that you do not know, the wise choice is to call either your pharmacy, your ER, or your Doctor and explain what you found. They will tell you what it is and the proper disposal of that drug.

Actually it's Indomethacin, an arthritis medication, but as said above, if there is no reason for this to be in your home, go to a pharmacy for safe disposal of the pills.
