Switching From Generic to Brand Restoril

Aarondawg

Hey there,

I have been taking 15mg of generic Restoril since late March and I am weaning off of it. My doctor recently prescribed me 7.5mg (since Restoril only comes in capsules) and when I paid for it it realized that it was Brand. I started taking the Brand 3 nights ago and I feel as if I am having to start a new drug....I am have sweats, tiredness, slight anxiety.

Could going from a generic to a brand medicine cause new side effects again?

Thanks,
