Little, perfectly round, white pill, scored on one side with a 15. Other side has an M.

I'm clueless, thought it could be a rapid release morphine, but now I'm not so sure...

Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

M15

The closest M15 I can find that almost matches your description is 15 mg immediate-release oxycodone (generic Roxicodone).

Per the manufacturer the pill is light green, not white.  Please compare your pill to the image at Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals.

huh.

Lol, you know it looked really white, until I put it on a piece of paper...

So what is that? Is it like a low mg oc? Or like a morphine? Or...? Do you know?

And what is the rapid release about, (other then that it would obviouly work right away), does that mean that it doesn't last very long?

Thanks for solving my silly mystery. Later I will go back to the basics, and brush up on my color identificaton.

Rapid vs. Controlled release

Rapid means all of the drug is released into your system as soon as it
hits your stomach and dissolves. Controlled release means small doses
of the drug are released into your system throughout the day. Oxycontin
(oxycodone) and MS Contin (morphine) are controlled release opiate
drugs. Vicodin, Percocet, and Dilaudid are all rapid release opiates.
Use caution when taking a high dosage of a rapid release opiate such as
Oxycodone rapid release or Demerol. (Unless, of course, you are opiate
tolerant!!!!) Sound like you stumbled across some good stuff!!!

m15

If this is a tiny white pill with an M over a 15 on one side it could be:

Generic Name: atropine and diphenoxylate (AH troe peen and dye fen OCK see late)
Brand Names: Lomocot, Lomotil, Lonox

It is a prescription antidiarrheal medication including relief from spasms of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach and intestines).

 

I've taken it for years for irritable bowel syndrome.  I doubt there's much street value to it, ha-ha!
