Side effects from restarting meds that I didnt originally have?
Sat, 03/02/2019 - 09:22I was on onfi, stopped bc I had to go generic and it was not helping so I discontinued but was able to get my hands on the name brand again about a month later. Now taking it I feel depressed and anxious. I had zero side effects when I first strted and it is a fricking miracle drug for me. What gives?
At times the generic version

At times the generic version of a med won't work with people. Insurance companies give you the generic version of a med because it's cheaper. If you are having problems with the generic then have your dr say/write down on the prescription that you need the name brand.
