Upcoming Event: FDA Basics Webinar on Generic Drugs, Monday, September 27th, 1:00 p.m. ET
Did you know that generic drugs are safe and effective alternatives to brand name drugs? Did you know that generic drugs can reduce the cost of prescription drugs for both consumers and the government?
As part of FDA Basics, FDA is hosting a webinar where you can learn more. The featured speaker Robert West, a supervisory pharmacist in the Office of Generic Drugs in FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), will give an overview of generic drug regulation. After the presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions.
The free 30 minute webinar will be held on Monday, September 27, at 1:00 p.m. ET.
Sign in early, since there are a limited number of spots available for the webinar. Materials from the webinar will also be made available on the FDA Web site.

Generic alternatives are sometimes great. However, sometimes they are slightly different than the brand name, and that can make a huge difference to some of us. I have tried a couple of generics, to save money, and have had adverse effects. Staying with the brand, for one of my meds., is best for me.
Kind regards.
