i'm not even actually arguing that this pharmacist is wrong.

what i'm arguing is that this pharmacist doesn't seem to have much interest in anything besides maximizing profit. she seems to be pushing the generics because she'll make more money that way, not due to any kind of scientific argument, one way or the other.

i doubt she even knows the difference, let alone cares about the efficacy of the treatment.

and, you have to always remember this when you're dealing with healthcare professionals - we live in a capitalist society, which means the number one priority is always profit.
