Hi Jerry
I hope this information helps ease your mind - so you can now go on and enjoy your son's birthday.

The pills are both the same drug but made by different companies. The pills are Doxycycline Hyclate 20 mg, an antibiotic, and most likely prescribed by a dentist.

The pill's are alittle smaller then an asprin white in color one says on it ( MP/573 )
This pill is DOXYCYCLINE HYCLATE 20MG, an antibiotic.
Generic for: Periostat

THE other one says (PS/20)
