An oblong scored tablet. Scored, no imprint, and it is supposed to be my blood pressure medication.

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

A scored oval with a two-letter code is usually a generic but the code is manufacturer-specific.

Pellets inside a capsule are normal for enteric formulations and are not a sign of anything.

A batch number and an expiry that are almost up on a new purchase usually means the box was copied.

Would rather not guess, which is why I am asking.

Everyone here blames the drug. Half the time it is the appointment schedule, not the molecule.

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

Access to mugs should be on the clinical questionnaire.

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

How do you get a clear photo of an imprint? Mine keep coming out blurry. Not on an oblong scored tablet but the pattern is familiar.

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

Interdose restlessness is distinct from the original symptom and worth naming separately.

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