No luck so far

I can't find this imprint in the databases.

Could you please tell us what the "G" looks like?

Here are a few "G" logos:

 
 
 

Click on the thumbnails for larger views of the logos.

And a fourth "G" logo - it's not clickable since I had to link to it:

The 'G' looks like the one in the top picture (the oblong tablet with G 147 on it). I have never seen this logo before. Anyone?

G127

Hi edhead2,

I think the G logo belongs to Guardian Drug Company. Apparently the company uses both GDC and the G logo.

 G192  pink and yellow concave, half white  See Forum Topic

  Imprint GDC172

GDC logo

GDC 127 is in the databases. It's 750 mg calcium carbonate (generic Tums). So I wouldn't be surprised if G 127 is the same drug with the newer G imprint.

Thanks Kirby!

You are correct! I verified it with Guardian-The 'G' imprint is taking over for the 'GDC'- Thanks again!
