tried googling but can’t see anything similar online but thought maybe a pharmacist or doctor or nurse might recognise them. found 4 of these in family member’s belongings. they say they were from a recent hospital admission but can’t remember what they’re for. family member known to be confused but also known to have a history of drug use so Confused

The other side has a ‘c’ on it

Hmmm. Maybe Zopiclone? That's the first one I thought of seeing zp. It knocks you out. Deepest sleep I've ever had. My pills looks different though, mine were larger and blue, but you can get different looking ones.

I thought Zopliclone too

RagamuffinCat · 29/03/2023 19:25

I also thought zopiclone

I also thought zopiclone although my tablets are long and thin. The letters are familiar.

HaggisBurger · 29/03/2023 19:30

Maybe Zolpidem - a similar Z sleeping drug. They may be off the internet which might be why they are unusual looking.

Coke users often take z drugs to sleep after a big night

Prochlorperazine

Hmm. Thanks for suggestions. Sleeping pills in hospital makes sense

Prochlorperazine

that could also make sense, an anti sickness pill. Is that what those look like?

They look like my prochlorperazine for anti sickness

It would be unusual to have been given 4 zopliclone in hospital. I was given them when I had a 10 day stay but just one a night and they watched me take it.

Ah ok that’s a relief. Do your pills look the same as this pic?

It won’t be zopliclone. Wrong shape; and you wouldn’t be given them to hold onto - they’d watch you take each individual dose.

Yes I thought it strange that they’d be able to pocket them but then staff are very busy and maybe didn’t watch them be swallowed

Zolpidem are marked ZPL

These are prochlorperazine for nausea.

youspinmerightround22 · 29/03/2023 19:52

Zapain maybe? They are a brand of co-codamol 30/500mg.

Lauren83 · 29/03/2023 19:53

That's them

They have a small C on the other side but that may be the manufacturer I'm not sure

Sparklybutold · 29/03/2023 19:55

Zoplicone

Greensleevevssnotnose · 29/03/2023 19:55

Zoloft?
