[?] I found meds in a blister pack marked "Lorazepam MK 2mg" The pack is silver foil with a purple stripe down the middle. The logo is MK in an oval shape with 'Medicamentos Corporacion Bonini(?) SA de CV' and "Elabarado en El Salvador'.

The pills themselves are small, yellow-white and have a chalky feel to them. The are center scored, have the same encircled MK symbol debossed and on the back side, L|R. In tap water the pill disintegrates but does not form any suspension with the water.

I found these meds when I was cleaning out my father's home -- he died of lung CA june 2003. We are currently in probate, his widow is a drug addict(many, many loose pills of vicodin everywehere). I don't know where these pills came from; I'm an RN and I've never seen any generics like this.

I've managed to successfully identify the medications I found (it took me over three months) and these, which should be easy, I cannot find any information on.

The widow had someone helping her from Mexico.I wondered if these could have legitimately come from Mexico or South America, if they are legit or poison and if I need to notify the probate judge or her attorney about this.

Thank you, Sharon
Lorazepam is mostly used for anxiety problems. I took it for my anxiety. I hope this helps
