I only used the generic so far, but it has seemed to be doing the trick.

Generic is just the same to me.
A lot less cheaper as well...
The only difference between most generic and brand name medications is how they put the pill together. What filler they use, the amounts etc. There is a slight difference yes- but the main drug is still the same.

I went ahead and got the generic. Im trying it for 3mo for my dr sends me to a specialist, so I figure if it doesnt work this time, I'll try brand name next time.


Thanks for all your help!
