DP 857

Does the 'dp' on your tablet look like this logo:

 Duramed Pharmaceuticals  Original image GSM  - Catholic Healthcare West

Logo - Duramed

 

If so, the pill is 1200 mg extended-release guaifenesin, an expectorant.

I think this imprint is discontinued since I can't find much information.
