Generic is the same thing.
But generic brand is the same same chemicals to treat infection back in the day generic use to be cheaper but it's almost same in price now a days.. just made by different company...
It's not dumb.. but I cannot take that and due to the fact I'm a pharmacy technician I know about different meds this one unit dose pill called fluconazole I took that when I had a yeast due to the fact those otc over the counter meds burn the heck out of me.. so I asked my doctor to prescribe that for me... Talk to your doctor but if you used the otc monistat stick with it if it don't cause you any problems but that pill is a one time thing not a three day thing..
