PillID helps you identify unknown pills by imprint code, shape, and color. It's completely free, requires no account, and is built on publicly available U.S. government drug databases.
MEDICAL DISCLAIMER: PillID is for informational purposes only and is NOT a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Never use PillID to make clinical medication decisions. Always consult a licensed pharmacist or healthcare provider. In an emergency, call 911 or Poison Control (1-800-222-1222).
PillID is a reference tool, not a diagnostic tool. The Pillbox dataset was archived in 2021 — medications approved or reformulated after that date will not appear. DEA schedule classifications in the database may not reflect subsequent rescheduling (e.g. hydrocodone combinations were rescheduled from Schedule III to II in 2014).
Not all pills have images. The image archive contains 8,693 photos from the original NLM Pillbox collection — many medications, especially generics from smaller manufacturers, will show no image.
Imprint codes are not always unique. Different manufacturers occasionally use the same imprint, and search results may return multiple matches. Always cross-reference with shape, color, and strength.
