Two doctors (different occasions; neither knew of the other's advice) explained to me that generic drugs are allowed to differ in dosage to some degree from what is stated on the packaging more than what is allowed for the original maker. I suppose the FDA considers this a range of tolerance within which the generic should be able to "perform as well as the standard." My MD says there are some drugs for which he would not prescribe the generic, but he had no problem with prescribing the generic for Sinemet when I asked for it (after bumming one from a kind soul at PAN's legislative conference last year when I realized I had left my Sinemet in my room).
