Default Trouble switching to generic BC pills??

Has anyone experienced any trouble switching from their regular form of birth control pills to the generic form of the same drug? I like the idea of saving a little money each month but am a little scared.

I've switched to generics of Ortho Tri-Cyclen and Seasonale, and I have had no problems and I never got pregnant! Good luck!

Nope, never had any issues, and I frequently vary back and forth between different types of gereric and the real deal. Just depends on the pharmacy I'm at.
As long as you're getting the hormones, I think you should be fine.
