Although I ask every time and no one ever answrs, I would like to know where you found this, you don't just find blood pressure medication laying around your home? Laying on the street?

And why not just throw away pills you don't know what they are.

What mg would that be Low? For some reason I can't seem to find that particular pill with those imprints, maybe I am just not entering the imprints right at the site.

Unfortunately I have no idea, this is 5 mg, but is that a low dose?

Here is where I found it, I gave the link to drugs.com as they tend to give full info on each drug

Kinney Drugs | Drug IDentifier (http://cpref.goldstandard.com/pid/idsetup.asp?type=mark&i=1&r=5057)

Enter marking EN 5 and it's the second one on the list, it has a photo of the pill, couldn't give a direct link for some reason. Not my favourite site, it's usually a last chance attempt at finding a drug when the emarking is longer

Yes but of course we don't know if this is someone who found this in their sons room, or a teen buying pills from a dealer at school or going to a pill party where everyone brings pills from their home and everyone takes a hand full.

You may be helping a parent ( alittle) but you well could be helping a drug dealer or some kid wanting to take illegal pills.

If a parent finds a pill, they can well take it to a drug store and talk to the druggest about what the pill could do, signs to look for if they child takes it, and get a lot more info than we can. If we help a teen OD on some drug by telling them it is some controlled substance, I for one have a real problem with that.

But if it's a parent wanting to know what the pill in their child's room is your OK with that?

Anyone can claim to be a parent and say they found a pill in their kid's room, so we can never trust what someone posts as their reason for wanting to know so it comes down to a decision as to whether you will give the info, some of us choose to give this sort of information.

If it really is someone wanting to take unprescribed prescription medications its better that they know what it is, what the side effects are as many prescriptions can kill when you don't have the symptoms its meant to treat. I've known people who will take pills based on what the seller claims it to be and if the seller lied someone could be taking something a lot more dangerous than vicodin or other commonly abused pain killers.
