Dear XXXXXXX

Thanks for your query. Unfortunately, the numbers on a pill work as an identifier, if absent, you can not tell for sure what substance it is just by looking at the color or the scoring, since the company produces several pills with the same physical features. If you had the numbers, then tools like Epocrates and others allow you to do a specific search. It is like losing the fingerprints in a person.
