- alkonaut 9y agoAren't pharmacies allowed to suggest generic replacement to the drug on the recipe (unless the prescribing doctor explicitly stated to not allow it?) Do doctors prescribe the specific brand drug and prevent changing it to generics, because the insurer tells them to? That sounds like a solvable problem: doctors that prevent swapping for generics must have valid medical reasons, not only economical reasons. Makes sense?
