The first part is the name of the medicine, I believe. Suppository means inserted into the anus. BID means twice a day and you do it two weeks. This is something typically done when someone is too nauseated to keep medicine down orally, like a chemo patient or someone with a really bad gastroenteritis. The above link gives you a place to double check your medicine abbreviations.

ASA 5 is a medical drug often used to treat Inflamatory Bowel Disease it is available as a suppositary and therefore can be used up your bottom, and BID means twice daily.

Sounds like somebody was given a "doctor's sample' of colored pills with instructions to take twice daily etc. The medical field will do such things to play on the mind making it think they are getting some high-powered-medication.
Back in the mid-50's Dow Chemical Company was manufacturing aspirin in several colors, pink and green, that I recall for sure.
