The FDA has just announced the generic for Aricept has been approved in both 5 mg. and 10 mg. It also dissolved on the tongue - rather than having to swallow it.
This is a good place to talk about the generic Razadine. Our Plan D considered the tablets generic and will charge generic prices. But the capsules are not. Last year I paid full price for them and that was why we went into the donut hole. So make sure that the version of these, and other, drugs that you are using are the right dosage and versions for YOUR insurance company.
In January we will change to a twice a day dosage and a bargain price.
