My brother doesn't really go into the details with me on how messed up it is but hearing from you as to the realization about how screwed it up scares me a little! I mean, how often do they switch prescriptions that have more dire consequences then my weight gain/etc? Thanks for the comment! :) Yes, it is really scary!

I really should research this more and/or ask around. I just know my pharmacy put me on a generic of Type A pill which worked for me... until they decided to switch me to something completely different! Now I'm suffering through all the side effects Type X pill has!! And I agree! 100% all the way baby!! Thank you! :) I'm glad you like!!

I learned several years ago that generics legally only have to have 70% of the name brand form. is this still true? I want 100%!! this was my first visit to your site-LOVE it!! i totally agree with you! i hate generic medicines.

See, honestly I don't really care if I'm using Type A product or its generic counterpart as long as it is doing its job right and not messing up my health. It was weird reading that article and seeing that the inactive ingredients are differing and say I'm allergic to something that is found in the generic but not in the regular? Psychoooo. Honestly though there are so many birth control pills out there. I swear I've tried at least 10 of them. The one brand name one I went with was Yasmin and that was the one that made me discover that regular birth control and its estrogen levels keel me dead. Wow that is really crazy!

While they spend like, a billion dollars on developing a drug, generic producers spend about one million copying it. And the rate of profit is higher for generics than the company who originally made it. Blah. Mmmm interesting read because I’m working for a pharmaceutical company.
