Re: Walmart perscription drugs
Most generic drugs are good but the ingredients are not always the same as the brand name drugs. For example, I know at least some doctors who do not allow substitutions of generics for Synthroid (for a thyroid disorder). My doctor will usually tell me if I can take a generic of a drug or not and my doctor knows that it's my preference to take a generic if it's available and as good as the brand name drug.
