I found a rather large yellow capsule filled with light-brown-tan powder, and little white specks here and there. I know there are opiates in the house i found it in, but is this an entire pill of heroin? i've seen bags of them, but never in a pill form or anything else.
Yellow oblong/Capsule (No marking) filled with brown powder?

There are no letters or numbers on the capsule and its filled with this tan/brown substance with white specks. i just really would like to know what it is, there are kids here sometimes and i dont want to say something if its just a vitamin and look like im being rude, i should just throw it out but its driving me nuts because i cant find an answer anywhere online!! pls respond if u know what this is. - also i tasted it, slightly bitter, does not smell strong of vitamins.

The best answer to your question: Maybe.
Street heroin looks like almost anything: white powder, tan powder, brown powder, black tar. Powdered heroin is often distributed to users in capsules.
The best indication I can offer, without having the sample in a laboratory, is to ask how full the capsule was. Professional vitamins or herbal blends will typically be full capsules (no air). Heroin capsules tend to be half-filled (lots of air). Getting a capsule completely full by hand (how a dealer would be filling them) is not worth the effort or mess.
