Generic

I was on the brand name ribaviran Copegasus, now my insurance will only pay for the generic.  Does anyone think there is a differance in how well the generic will work versus brand name???

This is pretty punny! It made me smile.....after digesting this fish tale, I believe Flguy meant no harm...he was saying you can't use a cuss word because all the little stars pop up to block it out, ya know?

Yeah, it stinks being on the receiving end of some strangers bad day, his problem...not mine.
Took me a minute...but I loved the halibut one.
G'night

ps> I do concur with the generics... riba has been around a long time. Lots of co-peg generic brands out there. My doc would have no issue putting me on generic copeg. Not to worry!

Yeah, his comment was kinda fishy, eh?
You may not be able to say *****, but he can't spell ****.  ;-)

I love puns. I also am happy with what he said about generics since I, too, was wondering about them.

They are bio equivalents.  Generics work.  They all make you feel like carp.
