Red face Unidentifiable pills


Can anyone out there help me identify a small, round, white pill with the markings 477? It can also be broken in half. I believe it may be something generic along the lines of a painkiller or muscle relaxer. Thay were prescribed to my elderly mother-inlaw who recently passed away. They keep surfacing in the house and there is no bottle to help me identify them. I have a 10 year old and I am concerned that she may find one and think that it's an aspirin. I have found them in the couch, bathroom and in small containers throughout the house as we have been cleaning out her belongings. Any help is certainly appreciated! Thanks!

477 is 50mg Metoprolol, a beta blocker used to treat hypertension, angina, and other heart problems.
