My favorite doctor and I began discussing generics at my last visit, and she informed me that the FDA tolerates up to a 40% discrepancy in bioavailability generic vs. name brand drugs. Is it any wonder we all respond differently?
This website supports this but says 20 % and for some of us that may be enough to make a difference!

This guy shoots from the hip on the topic in a humorous way.
