Help? Brand Oc Vs. Generic Oc Posted: 04-23-04 07:32am
I was wondering if anyone knew anything
about the generic versions of birth
control and their effectiveness. I was
given a 4 month supply of cylessa, and
when I got my prescription filled, it had
changed to velivet. Apparently my
insurance company allows the generic
substitutes because they are cheaper...I
was just wondering if they are any less
effective or a different formula? I don't
want to have to change...I have gotten
used to the formula I am on and so far
it's been working great. If anyone has
some input, it would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!

Nah, generic brands are no different...
Just cheaper. Don't know why doctors
don't give the generic brands to all of
us!!!
