[epilepsy] Medication Brand name versus genertic

 

April 9th while I was waiting in the hospital ER, they showed a TV program about medication. The program was about brand name versus
genertic brands. The program stated that Genertic Brand A and Genertic Brand B could vary 30% maybe more are maybe less in actual strength of the medications they each contained. My genertic brands had been changed by my supplier! This was the second time I had passed out in a 3 week period, both times the level of medication in my blood was below the safe level. The first time they gave me an injection and I was allowed to leave in a few hours, unharmed. Apr 9th I ended up getting an injection and spending the night for pain management the result of having 2 broken ribs and other minor ijuries and bruises. The main thing stressed in the program I was watching was make sure the brands that work stay the same if possible. I will not name the drug at this time as I am going to have the medication test.
