Question
what kind of pill is this, it is white and round, and has the letters ww, and the numbers 176 under it, the other side is blank just found it and wanted to know what it was, thanks

Answer
    As of a 2005 listing from a generic drug manufacturer those tablets may be carisoprodol 350mg, a generic form of Soma 350mg.  None of the current drug listings pull up a match when you search for anything with that tablet markings.  It is possible you have found some old tablets that most likely should be destroyed.

Thanks
