The bioavailabilty [the amount of actual drug that you metabolize] is the issue.Tablet content is regulated but no generic is exactly the same.,You could actually be getting a little bit more or a little bit less of the active ingredient..Its important that you get the same generic every month if you seem sensitive to such changes.It will matter more to some than others.
