About Generics

Are generic prescription drugs as effective as brand-name prescription drugs?

YES! Generic prescription drugs are just as effective as brand name prescription drugs.

What if I don't want generic prescription drugs, can I opt to have only brand-name prescription drugs?

Yes. On the questionnaire you can indicate whether or not generic prescription drugs are acceptable. If you wish to have generic prescription drug substitution on only some of your prescriptions, you can do any one of the following:

  • Get your doctor to write the prescription specifically requesting the generic prescription drug.
  • On the questionnaire in the "Medications Being Ordered" section write the brand name of the prescription drug desired then put the word (GENERIC) in parenthesis beside it.

Write a note and include it when you send in the questionnaire indicating which prescription drugs you wish to have filled with generic prescription drugs and which you require the brand name prescription drug.
