Q: Difference between Seasonale and Quasense

I am currently on a knock-off brand of Seasonale called Quasense. I always feel queezy and light headed after taking Quasense and i am finishing up my third month on it. i have had some break through bleeding. My question is what is the difference between Seasonale and Quasense. I have heard some bad things about Quasense and that they use different fillers than Seasonale. Can this affect how i feel? And i was just thinking about changing to Seasonale. When i went into the pharmacy to pick up my perscription, they informed me that Quasense was the same as Seasonale but cheaper.. is this true? Any opinion of if i should change to Seaosnale?

I am currently on birth control because i get major migraines before my period so my doctor placed me on this to reduce my periods for less migraines

ALTHOUGH generic drugs have the same ACTIVE ingredients, the fillers are different, and some women do notice a difference.

I am on ZOLOFT. NOT a birth control pill, BUT I cannot use the cheaper generic version, it just does not work for me.

You may not be compatible with Quasense.
