Whats the difference between Accutane and Generic Accutane?
I’ve bееn doing ѕοmе searches οn Accutane аnd notice thаt ѕοmе pharmacy’s аrе selling generic accutane fοr less thаn јυѕt accutane itself. Whу іѕ thаt? Dοеѕ іt mean thаt thе generic іѕ less effective thаn thе οthеr?
There is no difference, same working ingredients! Different packaging/shape of product does not impact the effectiveness.
It’s that brand name and advertising you pay for.
The difference is about $55 for a two week supply.
I was a doctor in my home country. I didn’t find any difference in efficacy in brand name and generic drugs (in my 12 years working). Brand name drugs are produced after a lot of research and obviously that company wants to cover that cost + earn a lot of money too.
I just went to the pharmacy to get my first pack of Accutane (altough it is my second round- I was on it last summer) THey gave me a generic brand called Clarus instead of Accutane/ The pharmacist said that it is the exact same thing only cheaper, and that it has the same results.
