Generics

[madscientist]

Do generic prescription diet pills work the same as the brand name ones. I know that they are supposed to but you hear a lot about prescription pills that don’t work the same in generic and brand name forms. I had that experience with cholesterol pills.

You would probably be best to talk to your doctor or your pharmacist about that one. I've had a lot of bad luck with generics, even though they're supposed to be the same. So far I've had a glaucoma drop and a cholesterol medication not work in its generic form. But they're probably not all like that.

Probably the pharmacist would be the most help with this
