Unhappy What is this please? I know someone who took it so please hurry.

A very small round pill with only a V on it. Someone told him it was a codeine or something like that. What is this pill? Please hurry as my son took it and he also has taken other pills in the last few days. Thanks MaraK. (he is over the age of my telling him he cannot do anything, and I am staying with him and his wife but I am concerned because this pill made him sleep) Please hurry so I won't worry. MaraK.

There's a lot of pills imprinted with a V, almost always it has other numbers following it, I would need to know them to give you a positive ID. A V logo most likely belongs to Vintage/Qualitest Pharmaceuticals. Sorry, I can't help you without more info.

V 5137 is 25mg Promethazine, an antihistamine/antiemetic (no codeine in it), Promethazine can make you sleepy, it is non narcotic and safe, but that's regardless. Good luck.
