always generic. never noticed a big difference from fill to fill. I think they went from teva to...cipla? maybe?

its so...strange. after a disastrous hospital stay nearly 15 years ago, the shrink -insisted- on brand risperdal, but not the minty, melt in your mouth kind they had in hospital (let down!). apparently, very important for maintaining proper blood levels, blah blah blah.

so...i ask current prescriber about lamictal xr. 'nah, that's for neurologists..." which is a perfectly valid response, just...

especially with the potential ill effects of not maintaining proper blood levels with anticonvulsants (but apparently brand atypicals are a must?), I didn't quite...get it.

sorry to ramble. i find that the 2x daily with any given generic from my big box, chain drugstore @ 300/day is...? less agitation, low mood less frequent and less severe.
