Consult your doctor first:

Even if the salt is the same, your doctor can confirm if the substitute is right for your condition, dosage, and health history.

Watch out for allergies or reactions:

Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.
