Hello, Dee! How are you?

That is the only difference, the manufacturers. Once a medication is available as a generic, it is usually made by several different companies and whichever one your pharmacy carries at any given time, will depend on who was offering the cheapest price at the time they needed to restock their supply.

This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.

Is there anything else I can help with?
