Go to the pharmacy or library and look for one of those "Pill Books." They have the pills categorized by color!!! WalMart may have them also.

Maybe you can find it online even. I don't know.

Ms. Tutu is right - either ask the pharmacist to TELL you, or you'll have to look it up on a pill book at the library. I've never looked to see if they have anything a pill identifier online....
