imipramine Consumer Drug Information

I believe that is the pill in question, how old is your daughter? It may be that a visitor dropped it or something, is there any other writing on it at all?

I do not think that it is imipramine since the 25mg is a tablet. The capsules are not that color. Is there any other marks on it?

There are a lot of pills out there with that discription. Take it to a pharmacy and ask the pharmacist to identify it. It could be anything from a gas pill to an allergy pill. The fact your daughter had it in her mouth could ve removed some of the lettering. Pills usually have lettering as well as numbers. Plus get her checked out. She could've picked it up from the ground. Kids usually do that.

If there are no other marks on it, the chances of finding out the medication is very tough. If it football shaped, green and cushy like a pimple (LOL!! ), it might be simethicone which is a medication for gas

That sounds like the sleeping pill I was given by my doctor. Green, looks kind of like a football, has "25" written in white on it.

The original question is over a year old.



The best thing to do for identifying pills, is to take it or them to a pharmacist who can visit with you and also see the pills in person.

There are some sites that people do use for the identification of pills. One such site is on the following link. Pill Identifier - Drugs.com The information on a site such as that is good, but not foolproof. But, it's certainly better to use a site that has sections on it specifically designed for the identification of pills rather than relying on people who are strangers to you and not pharmacists. After all, how do you know that strangers who tell you what they think is correct identification of the pills are correct? Please see an example of discrepancies in the identification of a pill on the following link. The thread there is two pages in length.

Even if someone were to post an image here that looks exactly like the pill or pills that someone is wanting to identify, and then writes what they think the identity of the pill is, it's still best to take pills to a pharmacist for identification to be sure of what it is.



Again, the original question here is over a year old.
