I had met people who have a complete knowledge of the generic medicines, yet they still choose the brand without giving any reason.

Why are they doing that?

    Perception that the generic brands don’t work as well or are lower quality. I had a co-worker who maintained that the generic version of his prescription drug didn’t work at all for him (this was back when France passed a law that is generic version of your medicine existed, the branded version wouldn’t be fully covered by the state health insurance, so lots of people were complaining about them)
