My bad. You are correct. I misspoke. What I meant to say that at times generics (and similar drugs, but not generics) won't work as well as the original drug

My bad. You are correct. I misspoke. What I meant to say that at times generics (and similar drugs, but not generics) won't work as well as the original drug. Not always, but sometimes they just aren't effective in certain circumstances. The doctor may know this, but can't immediately prescribe what is effective in the name of "saving money"
