[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 948154, member: 14176"] As usual, half of your argument makes sense. I am in complete agreement in regards to generic equivalents. If you insist on the name brand when a generic is available, you should pay the difference out of pocket. Where I disagree is in the ibuprofen scenario. If I go to a doctor and he or she prescribes for my treatment ibuprofen, it should be covered by my benefits. Taking 3 or 4 Advils for every dose prescribed out of my own medicine cabinet, on my own dime, is not appropriate or inexpensive. To my knowledge OTC drugs are not covered by our prescription plan, hence the prescription. Minor ailments that I experience in which I don't seek a doctors care is what my OTC medications are for. Medical and prescription benefits are designed to soften the economic effects of an injury or illness. We should not accept a watered down version. [/QUOTE]
