New BCP and "Flow"

Hello Everyone,
I may be about to ask an incredibly silly question, but I need to ask it. When switching BCP's (even from one generic to another generic of the same expensive drug), is it normal that a flow can change rather dramatically?
I only ask because for about a year I was on the pill that I just recently started again (this is my first cycle back on this drug after being on another for about 6 months), and my period is currently a lot heavier than I remember it being when I was on this drug before. Is that normal?
As can be seen from my posts over the last few months, I have been having an issue that I think is directly related to the pill I just changed from. I was considering going off the pill entirely, but when I switched my pill last month, the majority of my symptoms went away, so I was slightly encouraged that things were headed in the right direction.
Has anyone else ever changed from one generic to another (for the same expensive drug) and noticed a dramtic change in flow? After the initial 3-4 cycles, should my period flow taper off to what it was before?
Thanks in advance for answering my silly question.
