GENERIC CHANGES

Celebrating 15 Years
If you take a generic version of a brand-name medication, you may have
noticed that it has a different color or shape than its brand-name counterpart.
In some cases, one generic may be different from another that has the same
active ingredient. The fact is that generic drugs that are approved as pharmacological
substitutes for more costly brand-name drugs often do not look like
the medications they replace. To make matters even more confusing, the
appearance of generic drugs may differ from refill to refill. One reason for this
discrepancy in appearance is that trademark laws prohibit generics from
looking like their brand-name counterparts. In addition, the shape and color
of equivalent generic drugs may differ from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Not all innovator drugs have a generic version. Those that were recently
developed are probably still patented; therefore a generic does not exist. To
get the benefits of those drugs, you’ll need to use the branded versions. And
if you have an insurance plan that covers prescription drugs, you may be
surprised to know that some brand drugs will actually cost less than generics
do. For more information, please call VILLAGE PHARMACY at
781-334-3133. Our pharmacy is located in the Colonial Shopping Center.
HINT: Generic drugs account for up to 70 percent of all prescriptions in the
United States.
