Default large red and white capsule

Hello everyone this is my first time here and I just wanted to ask a quick question. I recently found a capsule in my loft. It is half white and half red. The red portion of the capsule acts like top and can be taken off. Inside of the capsule is a biegish/whitish powder. The capsule has now markings whatsoever. It is kinda big also. If someone could please help me identify this capsule I would greatly appreciate it.

There is no way to positively identify it, other than to pay to have it lab tested. All prescription meds sold in the US are required to have unique markings for ID, however it could be anything else, drugs sold OTC, Vitamins, herbal supplements or etc. These are not regulated and have no required markings.

My information is not guaranteed correct. I do not get them right all the time, but I do enjoy the hunt~

Just like zippysgoddess said, there is no way to positively ID a pill if it has no imprints.


I'm not a pharmacist or a medical doctor. This message is not medical advice nor is it an offer to provide medical advice. All drug identifications should be validated by a licensed MD or pharmacist.

Thanks Kirby. They had to double check, just in case I was making it all up! LOL!
