		<description><![CDATA[Question: Do you think there is a difference between generic and brand name medications? I've been on the same medication for a long time. All of a sudden, my doctor prescribed a generic version. It did not work, and I started getting very depressed and anxious, and I had my first panic attack in years. What do you think? My pharmacist says the generic is exactly the same as the brand name. My primary care said it's all in my head.

Anne Fenton, MD: First, it is important to realize that your doctor did not prescribe the generic version of your medication. Your doctor filled out the same prescription as you have always had. However, as soon as the patent on a brand name medication expires, a generic version is produced, and pharmacies are automatically mandated by insurance companies to dispense only the generic unless the doctor specifies “dispense brand name only” This is because the generic is less expensive for the insurance company to pay for than the brand name drug.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My child is really “high maintenance”. He has horrible tantrums and can be very aggressive. He is very intelligent, and does well in school, but at home he is a monster. Everyone tells us that it is our fault. They think we should discipline him better, but when we try to, he doesn't respond. He doesn't care if we punish him or take things away. And he lets us know.]]></description>
