Greenstone brand is actually owned by Pfizer, who holds the original patent on Neurontin and Lyrica.

In fact people who received generic Xanax (also a Pfizer drug) would demand the Greenstone brand of that!

Some companies vary in the fillers used, etc. But just so you know Apotex has been having manufacturing problems and is not supplying some drugs reliably today. (FDA citations etc).

Here are some discussions about Apotex:

This link gives a list of recent recalls at Apotex:

It is a pretty long list of "problems" but gabapentin is not listed on this one.
