Pillbox: A Useful Pill Identification Tool


The National Library of Medicine (NLM), in partnership with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is in the process of developing a website that will provide a visual reference system to aid identification of unknown pharmaceuticals. Currently in beta, it is envisioned that this resource will provide valuable assistance to emergency physicians, first responders, health care providers, poison control center staff, as well as concerned citizens. Users are able to search by imprint, shape, colour, size and scoring of medications in tablet or capsule form.
