I don't agree that generic drugs are exactly the same as the real drug. The main ingredients/chemicals might be the same, but they have fillers. I found this out when I took a generic drug and had a terrible allergic reaction from the filler in the drug. My whole body developed black and blue marks all over it within a couple of days, along with hives. It took weeks for it to get out of my system and the black and blue marks & hives to go away. I went to the Doctor and he told me I had an allergic reaction to the "filler" in the drug. He knew this since I had taken the real drug before for many years without any reaction. I still take some generic drugs, but I am careful about looking for any adverse side effects.
