I'm making the transition to all generic because on my insurance the brand is exorbitantly priced. My Dr. submitted a form requesting they cover brand but to no avail. I have already switched my Wellbutrin 150mg XL to the generic several days ago and so far I haven't turned into newt. LOL Soon I will be switching to generic Prozac and Abilify. My biggest concern is that generic Abilify will have some funky side effects I cannot deal with. I'm only on 7mg. Does anyone have any experience with the generic form of Abilify? Any other advice is welcome.

I've been prescribed amitriptyline to take at night for my depression, anxiety, chronic fatigue and pain. I see it has been out for a long time. Does anyone know if there are any particular generic manufacturers that are better than others for this med? I ask because on several other meds in the past I could notice a significant difference from certain generic drug makers, especially with paxil, effexor, and klonopin. I know its supposed to be "therapeutically equivalent" but they can definitely vary. Thank you.

Generic benzos Sandoz vs Actavis
original guy posted a topic in Benzodiazepines - Take a Chill Pill!
I've been on a benzo as part of my cocktail for a long time, and I've noticed quite a difference between some generic manufacturers. I was recently switched to oxazepam and the pharmacy carries Sandoz and Actavis. Does anyone have an opinion on the quality of these 2 companies when it comes to benzos or oxazepam in particular? I've noticed in the past the one company that I feel doesn't hardly work at all is Mylan. -
I'm wondering if anyone here has felt a noticeable difference between the Glaxo-Smith Kline Lamictal and the Sandos brand (which is a generic?) My doctor said that they have the same bio-availability, only tiny difference is in the coating...He said the only issue he's seen is if you have been on a particular one for a long time and then switch. I am still titrating up around 75mg now (took GSK brand for a month), and the pharmacy gave me the Sandos brand this time. Has anyone here been on both brands & experienced any ill-effects from switching?
