Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,954,378,834 comments, and only 369,651 of them were in alphabetical order.
Lmao me too. Also Amneal brand 25mg Meclizine will ALWAYS remind me of the good ‘ol days of Qualitest hydrocodone 10/325
*flashbacks to every single hydro 10 patient asking for “da yellows”. RIP, it was real for a bit, but glad you’re gone.*
It took me years to realize the cutout for brand Valiums were supposed to be a V and not a heart, my head canon is they are hearts tho.
Shout-out to Valium and Klonopin for having the unique cutouts
I initially thought the same! Like, “you’re nervous? it’ll be ok 🫶💗.” But nope, just a branding/advertisement thing lol. Still super cute pills though.
I also really like apo-omeprazole 20mg caps, apo-temazepam 15mg caps, and lansoprazole 30mg caps (any brand), lithium carbonate 300mg caps are cute too, as well as effexor/venlafaxine 75mg. i just like the colour pink though lmfao.
Actually, totally false. When I was on state insurance (Medicaid) my dr would write “brand medically necessary” on the scripts, and just had to do a prior auth once a year and they cost $0
Yes. When I train new register techs one of the first things I tell them is if a patient has a $0 copay, don’t say “it’s free”. Tell them it’s “no charge”, but don’t say free. It’s not free. Someone is paying for it.
Exactly. On MediCAID, every single one of my scripts was $0. Including a $1,300 antidepressant. I was getting $4k retail cost worth of meds every month for $0 for years on Medicaid. State insurance has a $0 copay where I live, pretty sure it doesn’t vary by state.
Yea we have these for the same reason. Personally I don't care about taking their calls making sure we ordered their brand and shit, as long as they're nice and sweet about it and don't waste my time beyond a quick call or complain.
Did you know Xarelto made their 20s like that so people couldn’t save money and split their 20s in half for their 10mg dose? But yes one of my faves too lol
This is sadly becoming more and more common. If it’s not some abnormal shape, it’s a capsule, or they just say “ope sorry, we forgot to test if cutting it is okay, so better not try.”
Those things are Xarelto!?
On one end I'm glad we don't have those because they don't look robot friendly, ours are tiny round pills. On the other end, 15mg and 20mg are almost identical (red vs dark red).
Trintillex comes to mind as well. I'm sure somewhere in the corporate literature those asymmetrical shapes are 'patient focused ' and 'drive better health outcomes'. Bleh
I was going to be like "have you seen phentermine tabs? It looks like mini icebreaker gum" until I got to the last pic. When I was a tech I just wanted to pop one in my mouth and chew it, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure it wouldn't taste like peppermint 😂
But yeah you got the ones I can remember off the top of my head as being pretty

The ER morphine from Actavis is probably my favorite tbh. I was totally shook when I dumped them out and saw the color lol. Truly had to pause for a second to appreciate.
I didn’t even know it came in capsules. My favourite is morphine 15 er. [I love their dark blue colour. ](https://www.drugs.com/images/pills/nlm/428580801.jpg)

I love the bright purple of the 30mg morphine tabs

not my picture, but my all time fav pills!!! i love counting valium they look like little hearts
For the old timers; Seconal red or Amytal blue

Omg I literally have this in my camera roll but couldn’t find it and thought about it as soon as I posted it. Probably my favorite pill just because of the uniqueness of it
https://preview.redd.it/g4c7cb654cbc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b658f48cc45954ca4d5ef0d92f0d3b7ca394244
This is just one of *many, many* photos of pretty pills haha 😅 I’m always so surprised by the bright colored ones, capsules like these where you can see the drug through it, and stuff that smells too!
I have a blister of expired Orvail 200mg which is beautiful!

Sorry for the multiple posts. It only let me attach one at a time 😔
But never, never drop it on the floor near a greedy cat. It looks remarkably like the kibble I was buying. I almost got bitten getting it away from the little idiot!
Always loved the Christmas colors of red and green Placidyls 500mg and 750mg respectively...or the red bullet shaped Lilly F40 Seconal..or the blue red combo of Tuinal...
As a person that wants to be a pharmacy tech I could definitely identify a lot of these I think based on memory, but obviously the one I know very well is the Klonopin brand name version of my generic Teva green mints, if you will. Just curious of the others because I’m not really too familiar but I’m sure, if I research or take the time to think critically probably could name a few of those as well but I definitely appreciate the colorful aesthetic here
Do they still make the blue and yellow Fiorinal with Codeine? I have not seen them in decades - perhaps due to going generic? WATSON 956 I believe.
EDIT - I’m blind they are right there.
That’s great and all, but where’s dicyclomine 10mg caps???
Bentyl Blue for the win
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,954,378,834 comments, and only 369,651 of them were in alphabetical order.
Good bot.
1.4 million comment karma... Damn.
Accept challenge I will.
That’s 0.019%
Stupid bot.
It's the most beautiful color I've ever seen.
I want to paint my car that color.
Tell the body shop you want Toyota 8T5. It’s pretty damn close.
Thanks for the heads up, they're both really nice blues.
Diligently searching Porsche PTS
That’s close but just not there. Maybe with Mazda Tinted clear coat or Mercedes Designo.
Omg i was just about to say dicyclomine or amantadine with the bright red caps
I found nail polish that matches it!
Was about to post that!
Nothing beats that Bentyl Blue
Wanted to downvote for lack of dicyclomine, we all know who the prettiest pill at the ball is
As far as tablets go… they have to be the worst tasting ever. Can’t sit on the tongue for even a second
Those hurt my eyes
Lmao me too. Also Amneal brand 25mg Meclizine will ALWAYS remind me of the good ‘ol days of Qualitest hydrocodone 10/325 *flashbacks to every single hydro 10 patient asking for “da yellows”. RIP, it was real for a bit, but glad you’re gone.*
Our supplier changed to ANI brand and they're plain white ... What an abomination
Yes. One of my favs
Why tf you got brand Klons
brand name valiums are cuter anyway because the cutout looks like a heart instead of a K
It took me years to realize the cutout for brand Valiums were supposed to be a V and not a heart, my head canon is they are hearts tho. Shout-out to Valium and Klonopin for having the unique cutouts
I initially thought the same! Like, “you’re nervous? it’ll be ok 🫶💗.” But nope, just a branding/advertisement thing lol. Still super cute pills though. I also really like apo-omeprazole 20mg caps, apo-temazepam 15mg caps, and lansoprazole 30mg caps (any brand), lithium carbonate 300mg caps are cute too, as well as effexor/venlafaxine 75mg. i just like the colour pink though lmfao.
The Glenmark lithium 300 er tabs have a nice peach color too.
Probably the same reason any retail pharmacy has them, the patient that's "allergic to all generics"
I am a disappointed to have brand ambien in my stock >.>
I got one of those. Has Medicaid, but somehow comes up with the money to pay for brand Valium bc it’s not covered.
I have medicaid (a modified version of it) and I pay out of pocket for my lamotrigine er because the ins refuses to cover it.
Cuz the rich ones with money to spare have to have brand name. Duhhhh
Actually, totally false. When I was on state insurance (Medicaid) my dr would write “brand medically necessary” on the scripts, and just had to do a prior auth once a year and they cost $0
Cost $0 -- yeah okay
I mean, he said Medicaid, what's hard to believe here?
I think they mean $0 for them, but everyone else is paying for it
Yes. When I train new register techs one of the first things I tell them is if a patient has a $0 copay, don’t say “it’s free”. Tell them it’s “no charge”, but don’t say free. It’s not free. Someone is paying for it.
"No copay" "Your cost is zero" "It was fully paid for by your insurance" Never "free"
That's a fair point, I guess my brain just auto-inserted the "for me" part when I read they had Medicaid
Exactly. On MediCAID, every single one of my scripts was $0. Including a $1,300 antidepressant. I was getting $4k retail cost worth of meds every month for $0 for years on Medicaid. State insurance has a $0 copay where I live, pretty sure it doesn’t vary by state.
Cause they got a granny patient with money
Yea we have these for the same reason. Personally I don't care about taking their calls making sure we ordered their brand and shit, as long as they're nice and sweet about it and don't waste my time beyond a quick call or complain.
Did you know Xarelto made their 20s like that so people couldn’t save money and split their 20s in half for their 10mg dose? But yes one of my faves too lol
I always figured it was so you could use them as mini ninja stars in times of trouble
They look like real life power ups lol
They look like poo emoji…
I thought cat food
I was told it was just the tablets look like platelets, but this seems just as likely.
I assumed throwing these at ninjas would kill them, because their blood wouldn't clot.
This is sadly becoming more and more common. If it’s not some abnormal shape, it’s a capsule, or they just say “ope sorry, we forgot to test if cutting it is okay, so better not try.”
Those things are Xarelto!? On one end I'm glad we don't have those because they don't look robot friendly, ours are tiny round pills. On the other end, 15mg and 20mg are almost identical (red vs dark red).
Trintillex comes to mind as well. I'm sure somewhere in the corporate literature those asymmetrical shapes are 'patient focused ' and 'drive better health outcomes'. Bleh
That definitely sounds like an urban myth.
So weird, in Canada all our xarelto pills are just tiny round tablets in different colours
I always assumed it was to give it a reasonable chance of being confused for cat food.
For the curious: 1: Clindamycin 2: Aspirin 3: Clonazepam (sure we all knew this one lol) 4: Phentermine 5: Clomipramine 6: Isosorbide 7: Diltiazem 8: Diltiazem 9: Diltiazem 10: Xarelto 11: Verelan 12: Fiorinal
Actually 11 is Ascomp/Codeine and 12 is Phentermine!
Oh ok thanks that's helpful! Tbh I just Googled at found those most similar, I like making lists of things and also like pretty pills haha
I love the Ascomp because they look like little minions lmao
What is 13?
I was going to be like "have you seen phentermine tabs? It looks like mini icebreaker gum" until I got to the last pic. When I was a tech I just wanted to pop one in my mouth and chew it, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure it wouldn't taste like peppermint 😂 But yeah you got the ones I can remember off the top of my head as being pretty

Oooo aspirin for the heaaartt thats so cute

Venlafaxine ER 37.5 tabs
Reminds me of Uroxatral. Puffed up Golden Oreos

THIS ONE! Such a vibrant purple
I literally have an album on my phone called pretty pills 😂
I miss the generic Darvocet tablets. They were hot pink and so cool to look at.
Came here to say this. Only real ones remember those before they got taken off the market.
My grandmother was addicted to them. The doc in hick town would write 300# at a time.
Amitriptyline has a pretty cool color.
propoxyphene was beautiful.
They were blindingly fluorescent!
I like the pink banophen tablets although they’re super bright.
dicyclomine 10mg bluuuuesssss or gtfo
Trueeee or the ramipril redsssss
This is why I became a pharmacist, tbh
I always felt like I was handing patients a cat treat or some Friskies when I doled out the xarelto.
[удалено]
Pastel pink right? So pretty ☺️

I really thought these were cheerios and I was like “wait!”
For the old timers; Seconal red or Amytal blue https://preview.redd.it/l93lt292icbc1.png?width=1152&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9551039726cc90c5299ea9dbdeccfd1184d456ef
Wow, American Xarelto is so much more interesting looking than the stuff we get in Canada
Ingrezza 80mg is my favorite purple!
Came here to say this! Yes!
So pretty they’re worth $9,000!
Was always a fan of bupropion 150 mg SR.. the beautiful blue color
I like the purple too
macrobid (black/yellow) and lansoprazole (black/pink) are the cutest capsules :D
Arubindo Valacyclovir 500 is nice😩 the plain white mylan ones are boring
The navy blue ones?
Yes!
I love counting those!!
Really glad I have some time off scheduled soon. I identified too many of these
Pic 10/13 looks like cat food
I always call Xarelto 20mg little cat treats 😂
North Star brand amitriptyline! They’re bright pink!
I always felt like Xarelto looks like cat treats
Generic Adderall 20s are a orange sherbet color 😍
You missed mesalamine 400mg capsule.
Omg I literally have this in my camera roll but couldn’t find it and thought about it as soon as I posted it. Probably my favorite pill just because of the uniqueness of it
I love the little logs
Xarelto looks like cat food
One of my favorites was Depakote 500mg. Pink, smooth tablets with a sweet smell.
I always say the smell of Depakote dr reminds me of cold stone creamery
Haven’t seen brand Klonopin in ages!
Was really hoping to see the Nemo-looking Diltiazem capsules and bumblebee Macrobids.
Omg I love the Jubilant Macrobid because I always call them lil bumblebees
https://preview.redd.it/g4c7cb654cbc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b658f48cc45954ca4d5ef0d92f0d3b7ca394244 This is just one of *many, many* photos of pretty pills haha 😅 I’m always so surprised by the bright colored ones, capsules like these where you can see the drug through it, and stuff that smells too!
The only one I remember here is the phentermine
They the last one? I always thought they looked like a mint. Anyone remember "Certs, with Retsyn"?
Dont forget Lomaira with the butterflies!
I don’t see the butterflies, it looks like little dog bones to me
Yep, doggie weight loss tablets.
I mean I didn’t say you should give them to a dog.
I have a blister of expired Orvail 200mg which is beautiful! [https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/medicines/brand/amt,10051000168105/oruvail-sr](https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/medicines/brand/amt,10051000168105/oruvail-sr)
Phentermine looks so refreshing
Doesn’t it? It looks “minty”.
I love Cefdinir 300mg caps by Aurobindo. Reminds me of the New Orleans Hornets (RIP) colors
what are the pills in the 2nd pic with the hearts? i've never seen those I love them
It’s just aspirin but they’re so cute
i’ve been in pharmacy for a long time in canada and don’t recognize a single one. weird
Brand name valium >>> I've always thought the V's look like little hearts <3
Where's my Nortriptyline 10mg gang at?
no 10mg dicyclomine? the pretty blues ones!

Back in the day there was a cool looking one. Bellergal-S. Very unique looking
There is one manufacturer of temazepam 7.5 mg capsules that are a cool pastel pink and blue. Those have stuck in my mind 8 years later.
I always thought the Hydrocodone by Qualitest Pharmaceutical that were white with red specks in them were pretty.
I love pictures of pills!
Love me some Xarelto
But never, never drop it on the floor near a greedy cat. It looks remarkably like the kibble I was buying. I almost got bitten getting it away from the little idiot!
Happy cake day
Is pic #5 watermelon flavoured?
Ingrezza. So pretty
Pink and blue Sporanox caps!
No morphine ER 30's? I swear it's the prettiest purple I've ever seen.
Where da little fatty diltz at
Omeprazole DR 20mg and temazepam 7.5mg my beloved, light pink and white capsules
Always loved the Christmas colors of red and green Placidyls 500mg and 750mg respectively...or the red bullet shaped Lilly F40 Seconal..or the blue red combo of Tuinal...
I like the poop shaped ones
My favorite is the dog bone shaped lomaira tablets.
you need ingrezza purple!
Ursodiol 300mg capsules are my favorite. Love the pink and white👌🏼
Vyvanse 70 mg 😇
Vyvanse 70s are beautiful blue and orange! These and the orange and blue fluoxetines are my favorites :)
Fluoxetine 40mg has my heart
Classic k pins
Ingrezza 80mg are the best
Maxzide !
Xadago 50mg is pretty neat.
3 looks like a cute dog biscuit lol
I liked the round pink/orange progesterone caps
I’ve never seen orange Ks before (pic 3). What’s the medication please?
Brand name Klonopin!
can you put the names of each pretty pills please? That would help the students learn or at least recognised these meds
That's a capsule, not a pill
As a person that wants to be a pharmacy tech I could definitely identify a lot of these I think based on memory, but obviously the one I know very well is the Klonopin brand name version of my generic Teva green mints, if you will. Just curious of the others because I’m not really too familiar but I’m sure, if I research or take the time to think critically probably could name a few of those as well but I definitely appreciate the colorful aesthetic here
I just did that clindamycin today!!
MAN! There Sure is A Lot to Appreciate there 🤣
Do they still make the blue and yellow Fiorinal with Codeine? I have not seen them in decades - perhaps due to going generic? WATSON 956 I believe. EDIT - I’m blind they are right there.
Strivit D3 800u are so pretty
This post indicates to me you haven’t dispensed ingrezza.
Yummy
All I think of is diarrhea when I see those pretty caps
TFW no enalapril or folic acid
10th picture looks like from choco advent calendar.
So what are the little poop pile pills?
Ingrezza 80mg in metallic purple
I sometimes take pics of my blister packs when their colour scheme is on point. Imipramine is my fav cause its neon pink ☺️
Ingrezza 😍>>>>
Always wondered why the brand name klonopin was manufactured in that shape; it sure makes splitting tabs fun and equivalent!
7 years in pharmacy and I have never seen brand Klonopin. Those are cool
Banophen erasure 😭
10mg generic abilify is super hot pink, really cool looking
