The doctors do hate for the patients to ask for drugs by name (advertised ones cost more) than the generic ones besides and often the people do not need the ones that they ask for anyway because they are not able to diagnose the problem or solution.
The drug companies want you to ask for theirs by name so that you will buy more of theirs. When I need a product, I find out what the active ingredient is on the advertised product, and find the generic version. Saves me about 1/2 of the cost that way. :roll:
