Mystery Pill!

Patient came in yesterday and said this was a medication he was receiving from us. We have no record of this drug on his file. There is no writing on the tablet so I am thinking it might be a vitamin. Let me know what you think because we really want to identify this sucker. Personally, I think its candy. 😀

EDIT: There was no HIPPA violation in my picture, but I edited to remove my pharmacy name to avoid potential prank phone calls.

Looks like FeSO4 325 mg.

I have no idea about the pill, but I think I see a patient's name on that label, could be the doc though. Might want to remove or at least edit that pic to be safe.

Dude, I can see the RX number, doctor, and pharmacy name and location on that pic. A simple call there will tell me everything I need to know about that patient.

Good example of a HIPAA violation.

all you see is the doctors last name.

That looks delicious! Reminds me of the old Wonka candies called Tart n Tinys.

EDIT: If anyone knows where to find Tart n Tinys please let me know.

Obviously you need to put it in your mouth and report back

MVI

Ferrous sulfate (not sure of the strength).

Looks like candy... Not like any FeSO4 I've ever seen.

Pretty convincing FeSO4 325 tab but I dunno.

Without seeing a 3rd dimension clearly in the above picture (height) it's inconclusive. Certainly, general shape and color are right, but the original seems to have a "tube" appearances with sharp edges along the circumference, whereas the FeSO4 325 pictured above (and every one I've been able to find) is most definitely circular with rounded margins. Why am I reminded of Bacteriology / Micro here. LOL...

Ferrous Fumarate looks just like this. Cut the tablet in half to see if colour just coating. If pt says what wa taking for would help.
