44 525

This imprint is something new and not yet in the databases.

44 imprints designate LNK International, a prolific manufacturer of over-the-counter medications.

If you call LNK at 631-435-3500, the company will be able to identify the tablet for you.  If you do call, please let us know what you find out.   Thanks.

Of course the pharmacy would be clueless.  As I mentioned in my first post, it's something new and not in the databases.  Most likely, as concerned consumers, we would know the imprint first.

The telephone number has obviously changed, and I am sorry for the inconvenience.  I called one month ago and the number is exactly as I typed - 631-435-3500.  That is the one I've always called although several were listed.

But I just checked att.net 'anywho' tonight and there are only two numbers now listed, and they are different:

(631) 952-0885
(631) 273-5050

Here is the ATT link:

LNK International Phone Numbers as of 6/7/06

So please try one of those numbers. 

It's so strange that a recording didn't tell you the number has been changed.  And I apologize that I didn't know but there has been no reason to call lately.

Ask for Arlene when you call.  She is very nice and helpful.

You do realize LNK makes only over-the-counter medications?

If you would like a guess, I'm willing to say it's an antihistamine or antihistamine combo.  Something like phenylephrine and triprolidine - decongestant/antihistamine.  But I don't know.  I'm basing this on small size, white color and score line.  The biggest problem with all the OTC companies is that they are reformulating everything that contains pseudoephedrine with phenylephrine.  So all the imprints are new and not yet documented.

Not a Narcotic

Absolutely no - it's not a narcotic.  It's something sold over the counter in any pharmacy, grocery store etc.  And it's a Walgreen's store brand here in Texas.

And it's probably a store brand in other pharmacies that are located in other states - like Rite Aid, Eckerd etc.

 For the record, the number

 

For the record, the number (631-435-3500) has not been disconnected. I know it is 2am cst and did not expect anyone to answer, but I just called and got a recording saying; "hello, you have reached LNK International, our business hours are....."   

Maybe you dialed the number wrong, or there was a problem with your carrier or theirs at that particular moment. Either way, the number works.
