My question is this. Which is better? Why do you think so?

AF showed up today so I will need to get the prescription filled and was just wondering if I should get the name brand or generic.
Generic is $24.62 while name brand is $64.42.
Opinions? Comments??

Generic. Same active ingredients. (If you happen to have a Costco membership, check their price to fill the perscription too)

I'm not sure Melissa. I have to say that my memory of reading things that others wrote (maybe back to UB) about Clomid is that brand name is better.

I am pretty sure I used generic when I was TTC both of my kids. It worked. :)

:fyi: You do not need a Costco membership to buy prescriptions at Costco.

Good Luck :hug99:

I used the generic brand Serephene or Serephone or something like that.
