In my daily efforts to assist people in selecting a Part D Drug Plan (PDP), I have many clients who take prescriptions for thyroid issues. It usually comes down to the brand, Synthroid or the generic, Levothyroxine. As the generic has a substantially lower cost than the brand, it is preferred. In many cases, I have clients who fear the consistent quality of the generic. And because of this, they pay substantially more. This causes them to question if they need to pay more.

I came across the article linked below which describes some good strategies to make the generic an easier path. Take a look and see if it helps you.
