What’s the difference between generic and brand name drugs?
Not much, except name and price. Generic drugs start out with a patented brand name owned by one manufacturer. A familiar example is Prilosec, used for heartburn. When its patent expired, other manufacturers could make and sell Prilosec. They have to call it by its generic name, omeprazole, but they can sell it for a lot less.
