AHC and OC II

Nice clear image.

Can't find anything in the databases so the pills are probably foreign.

What country?

Thanks.

Not OxyContin

Okay, if the pills are from the US they are probably something sold over the counter like a vitamin or supplement.

The OC II is definitely not OxyContin. And surely not a generic - I'm sure Purdue would slap a fast lawsuit against any company using a similar imprint.

And the AHC imprint brings up nothing in any database - subscription or free. Sorry but I don't have any ideas what either pill could be. Frown Hopefully someone else can help you.

OC II and AHC

The "OC II" imprint is from Otis-Clapp.  There are two of them with this imprint, one is a pink oval tablet and one is a white oval tablet.  From the image it appears this is the white oval tablet:

Aspirin 360mg, Caffeine 75mg, Magnesium carbonate 100mg, Magnesium salicylate 60mg.  It's called "Back-quell" an analgesic.

The "AHC" comes back as a "comtrex" or equiv from Bristol-Myers Squibb: APAP 500mg, Bromopheniramine Maleate 2mg, Pseudoephedrine HCl 30mg

All I can say is thank you very much, and great work identifying these two tablets. Both have been mysteries for months - until now.

Thanks again.Cool
