I'm hoping that Mylan does too. Mylan is the drug company that is to supply me with lamotrigine. I should be able to pick it up later today. If not, I still have enough Lamictal to get by for a few days.
It may be that each drug that comes from a generic drug company must be judged separately. For instance, Teva might make a great generic fluoextine, but a poor generic lamotrigine.
In any event, it seems that there are sometimes differences in clinical outcome when one is switched from a name brand to a generic.
The thing I wonder is if a generic drug proves insufficient to maintain an improvement, perhaps a dosage adjustment is all that is needed.
