This pill is Tizanidine HCl 2mg (generic for Zanaflex) by Par.

Tizanidine tablets 2 mg are white to off white, oval, flat, bevelled
edged tablets embossed with “R179” on one side and “bisecting score” on other side.

You will find a description (no image) at parpharm.com

Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant. It works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain.
Tizanidine is used to treat increased muscle tone associated with spasticity.
