Because this pill has no "identifiable" markings, it is going to be difficult to determine what this tablet contains. U.S. law requires that all prescription drugs have unique letters or numbers (sometimes in addition to a logo of some kind) imprinted on the tablets or capsules so the medication can be identified by manufacturer, substance and dosage.

However, the way a pill looks is entirely up to the whit and whim of the company making it, so there could be many, many pills on the market, both over the counter and prescription that could meet that physical description.

It is very likely that this pill falls into one or more of the categories listed below:
-Manufactured outside of the U.S.
-It is an over-the-counter medication
-Fake
-Party drug (ecstasy or something else)
-Has been discontinued for one reason or another

Unfortunately, there's not much else you can do except take it to a lab and have it tested for ingredients. I would also consider taking the pill over to your local pharmacy and having it analyzed by their team to see what they come up with.

I hope this helps!
