MS Tablet

Richtab2001, hi and welcome to Pharmer.org. And thank you for the very nice image. Now we just have to identify it!Frown

I've checked every reference I have and can't find anything marked MS. Momentum (an OTC pain pill) is the closest I've found to the imprint, color and shape.

So we need more info:

  • Is the pill a US pill?
  • If not, what's the country of origin?
Thanks.

Also, is it possible that the tablets are SW and not MS?  Just exploring all avenues and possibilities.

MS Imprint

Well, it took almost a year to solve this mystery imprint. Laughing And I'm sure the OP no longer cares. But for future reference:

White oblong tablet imprinted MS on both sides is Contac Cold + Flu. The tablet contains 5 mg phenylephrine and 500 mg acetaminophen.

N/A
