benzodiazepine Valium

You've already gotten a specific answer. Retroglide is right, it's one of the benzodiazepine drugs. The one you've got is called diazepam and is sold under many trade names, including Valium. http://www.mentalhealth.com/drug/p30-v01.html In the future, you can go to the reference desk of your library and ask to see "The Physician's Desk Reference." The PDR is an enormous book regarding prescription drugs and has a section meant to help people figure out what drug they have by looking at photos of the pills or capsules. They also have a section that lists drugs by numbers and marks. Online, you can go here, a short page with a few photos: http://www.stopdrugs.org/idpills.html I liked this page: http://gsm.about.com/pid/main.asp but it just gives you the real name -- diazepam -- and you'd have to enter that name into Google to find out that it is commonly called Valium. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diazepam http://www.google.com/search?q=diazepam&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official This page leads you to your choice of four pill-identification sites: http://www.crazymeds.org/PillID.shtml And here's a site where you can ask, just as you did here: http://www.pharmer.org/forum/pill_identification Most pharmacists will help you over the phone with common drugs if you call when they aren't busy (not at lunchtime, not right after work).
