Thanks for posting this! I had wondered about the difference btwn generics and brand name. It's great to know that the generics are going to act the same as the more expensive drugs. I'm assuming that thhis is for all drugs, not just the pain meds. I'm referring to antibiotics. My insurance doesn't have a co-pay for generic antibiotics. I get them free. The brand name are so expensive and I wondered if they may not be as potent. Irene.View Thread
