I get generic as often as I get brand name medications and I have never experienced a difference.
Any studies I have read have shown no difference. As long as the active ingredients are the same, there effect should be the same.
The same pharmaceutical companies that make brand-name medications are often the same ones that make the generics.
We have a perception that brand-name is always better and it isn't.
