Are there any pill identification tools out there to identify foreign pills?

Specifically a relatively large ORANGE ROUND pill, scored on one side, and S L or 7 S depending on which way you read it. 

Thnx Jennie

re:

Thanks a lot. I searched this sight for almost an hour before I posted that trying to find a previous question about this pill, and couldnt find it. You're good. lol.

I would agree with that thread that this pill is a codeine/acet combo.

Here is a pic of the pill for any future pharmer searchers looking for info on the SL PINK pill (i said orange but i do see it as pink now)....

That's a really nice image, jenius. Thank you. And I'm sure flounder will be glad to see the image since he originally identified the SL imprint.Smile

I see you used a hosting service for your picture. May we have your permission to display your image permanently in our Foreign Image Gallery for future reference?

Thank you!

yes

my Alzheimers is kicking in, I read the post wrong and almost put out bad info by bringing up http://www.sidmak.com/ products.

yes, since this is this color and marked SL only and scored then it almost certainly is the Scanlabs codeine.  Thanks for the info and nice pic!!!!

I was reading thru some

I was reading thru some threads and noticed a few threads saying that overseas "HYDRO" = Codeine, which I knew, BUT just a thought: Is the codeine in overseas "hydro" the same as the codeine in the US?

In other words, is this ScanLabs Codeine pill the exact same thing as a Tylenol 3 Codeine pill?


THNX- Jennie

codeine

the codeine in the Scanlabs tabs are indeed codeine, same as in tylenol 3.
