There is something that many people don't seem to understand: there is no difference whatsoever between generic and brand name medication. Since drug companies cannot withhold information from the consumer on "proprietary" blends in their product, generic companies are able to create the exact same medications. The only difference between generic and brand name products is that you often get twice as much with generics for half the price you would pay for brand names.
