They're both biologically equivalent, so that means they're the same, right?
Kinda...
Even though the same amount of the actual medication is getting into your body, and the biggest difference is how rapidly it does so, all the inactive ingredients may have very minor effects that change the way you feel on them. Your doctor or pharmacist may or may not pay attention to what you say about this, and the effects of the drug shouldn't differ (much), but that doesn't mean that different formulations are going to feel the same from the subjective standpoint of the person taking the drugs.
I hope that helps.
