I'm a mom of a 19 year old who is an addict. I found some pills with no markings. All the websites weren't helpful for that reason. One is white, oval, small, squishy, slightly shiny. It has fluid inside. The other pill, without markings, looks a prescription pill - it's white, average size, a little thick for it's size and round.
If my son were still a minor - it would be easy. Take it up to the police department. Can't do that now. So I thought maybe someone might know something about this description.
And what would I do with this information? Not sure.

Also - thanks to all of you for your input. I didn't end up do anything about it. I know he's using. He knows I know. So what does it matter? I don't yell at him. I know that that is counterproductive and hurts our relationship.
But I haven't written a heart to heart letter to him in awhile so I may do that. I will also talk to him that I'm still worried and that we love him.
Having said all this ~ maybe it's because of the way we respond to him now ~ but he seems so much "better". He's, at least, engaged in school ~ something that we haven't seen all through his using high school years.
It's just difficult for him ~ being that all his high school using friends are within a short walk from our house. It's frustrating but we continue to pray that one day he will want to stop. No incentive now. As far as "kicking him out" - if he wasn't going to school and if he were out of control ~ I would try and convince my husband to consider it.
I understand. Unfortunately or fortunately ~ I'm not even sure anymore of what is the thing to do ~ but my husband (his dad) isn't interested in doing the tough love thing. It may get to the point (when things get worse) that he will respond. I have no control over my son or husband. So I'm learning to Let Go & Let God...... and Take One Day at A Time.
The best way is to ask your Pharmacist
