Some prescription drugs have two names: the trademark or brand name; and the chemical, or generic name. By law, both brand name drugs and generic drugs must meet the same standards for safety, purity, strength and quality. Many drugs are available in generic form. Generic drugs can save a significant amount of money, both for you and MSU. If you have any questions regarding generic drugs, call CVS Caremark Customer Service at 1-800-565-7105 or talk with your doctor or pharmacist.
