Off brand medications??

So i know off brand tylenol don't work for some people but they do fine for me. So my question is have any of you ladies taken any off brand medicines like tylenol amd tums and are they safe while pregnant? I checked active ingrediants and all are the same. Also i read tums are not safe is this true?? Thanks in advance for the advice

Tums are safe. My dr. said they are really good because they have a lot if calcium in them. Just don't take to many in one day. And im not sure about off brand medications.
