What is the difference between a brand and a generic medication?
When a new product is introduced to the market, the manufacturer assigns it a brand or trade name, different from its "chemical" name. Once the patent rights to the product expire [patent life varies depending on the time interval from initial discovery to approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)], other companies are free to manufacture generic versions of the product provided they meet all the requirements the FDA requires of the brand name drug. Generic drugs are regulated by the FDA just like the brand name drug and must meet the same stringent standards to ensure safety and efficacy for their intended uses. Most states require generic substitution by law, unless otherwise specified by the patient or physician. Please consult with your pharmacist concerning the substitution laws in your state.

Do you take my insurance card? Unfortunately, we do not have access to insurance plan information. Please contact your insurance company directly for assistance or check with Michelle’s Pharmacy. The insurance company should be able to provide you with a list of participating pharmacies in your area, or your pharmacist will likely be familiar with the plan. (The phone number for the insurance company should be listed on the back of your insurance card.)
