When you get your medicine refilled, get the same manufacturer.
Stanford University did a study that showed increased breakthrough seizures in people who switched generic manufacturers.
Best of luck,
Jake

Hi Jake,

I read that for drugs, the human body absorb one in different manner. Thus, a generic one may actually act better than brand name ones. Once the patent expires, there will be so many generic ones out there.

The numerous negative reviews of more generic ones will attract lesser negative attention than those of the more positive reviews of the brand name version. Let's give those generics a chance.

Cheers,
Louis
