Default Big difference in generic and name brand!!!

I just had to write about my experience going from generic oxycontin to name brand. The name brand is very expensive but...it has been like someone turned a light switch on! The name brand helps my pain sooo much more then the gernic ever did! It really makes me wonder what is in the generic meds!

I thoroughly agree Balmy. But what I noticed most was the manufacturers. The Vicodin I take by MCK is a bit less effective than by WATSON and I can definitely tell a difference.
