Pharmacies are able to give you the generic formula for the prescription as long as the doc approved generic on the actual prescription. If you are concerned that they have done this and shouldn't have, you need to contact your doc for assurance. I honestly don't think you have anything to worry about, but you should make sure for yourself.
