Yes but how am I supposed to know? That's the whole thing, the fact that doctors get kickbacks to perscribe certain meds erodes the trust I have in my doctor. There will always be a motive to perscribe an inferior med because of a payoff and there will be a motive to go with the more expensive med when they are equal.
