Generic Drug Problems
August 22, 2008
I recently stumbled upon a website run by 2 pharmacists titled “The People Pharmacy.”
The website includes a section where users can post their gripes and adverse reactions to generic drugs that they were prescribed.
The largest amont seemed targeted at Generic forms of Wellbutrin XL, Zoloft, Ambien, and of course, many levothyroxine medications. Some get more obscure as Valium, Ativan, Elavil, and some brand name drugs that have not been manufactured for decades.
Some questions for you: are there some brand name drugs you have to stock for your customers that you wish you didn’t? What’s the oddest story you’ve heard about an adverse reaction to a seeming dependable generic? Are there brand names you’ve been asked to stock that you flat-out refuse to?
Please leave it in a comment or, you can also start a thread in our forums!
