Reagent test result on tablet weight and dimensions was not what I expected. Colour described below.

The same imprint exists in several markets for different products, so country matters more than the database.

Holograms are the least useful check because they are the one everybody makes.

Imprint is the strongest signal, colour is the weakest, and the shape only narrows the manufacturer.

Reagent tests are a screen, not an assay. They rule a family in or out and say nothing about dose.

Happy to be told it is nothing.

Sorry, probably obvious, but where do you even start with something blank?

Bring a list. Embarrassment makes everyone forget things, including you.

Batch and expiry copied from a real box will already be nearly expired. That is the tell.

Imprint first, country second, colour last. And photograph both sides in daylight.

It gets smaller. Not easy, smaller. That distinction kept me going.

The pain score conversation is thirty seconds of my life I will never get back, every time. Not on tablet weight and dimensions but the pattern is familiar.

Take one to a pharmacist. Free, two minutes, correct. Everything else here is a hypothesis. Same for me with tablet weight and dimensions, unfortunately.

Interdose restlessness is distinct from the original symptom and worth naming separately. Two months in on tablet weight and dimensions and it lines up.

The hologram is the least useful check because it is the one everybody makes.
