Hi everybody, I'm trying to determine what these pills are. I don't have a camera on me, but I've drawn a picture (it's no Michelangelo) of the imprint. Basically, I'm helping my friend move, and we've found a bunch of these. She recalls buying them at a pharmacy in Mexico, but she doesn't remember what they are.


Description:
-tablet
-entirely white
-round, with bevelled edges

Dimensions:
-somewhat "thick", as opposed to "flat" (2.5mm deep, or roughly 0.1'')
-small (8mm in diameter, or roughly 0.32'')

Origin:
Mexico

Markings:
One side of the pill is scored with a single line, while the other side features an imprint which appears to be a horizontally elongated and stylised R surrounded by the outline of a rectangle with rounded corners.

This is a sketch of the imprint:

We've looked through a number of galleries (on your site and others), but we're stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

Your drawing is very nice, Felix.Smile

I don't know what your pills are, but here is an older thread talking about a round white tablet made by Rayere in Mexico:

The link to the company's website is in the thread. Ask your friend to browse through the list - maybe something will look familiar.

Good luck.

Great!

Thanks for the fast reply, Kirby. We looked through the product list and she recognized the packaging in the picture - it's "Oxyflux" Clenbuterol. 


If someone would like to use my sketch in the gallery for future reference, please go ahead and post it (I don't know how). It says we can't use copyrighted images, so I think mine is okay because I made it. Hopefully it'll help others. :)
