Excluded brand-name medications with generic equivalents

The brand-name medications below are excluded on the formulary. These brand-name medications have been identified as having available generic equivalents covered at Tier 1 on the formulary. Speak with your pharmacist to have your excluded brand-name medication substituted with its generic equivalent.

A generic medication contains the same active ingredient(s) as a brand-name medication. An active ingredient is what makes the medication work. For example, Lipitor® and its generic both contain atorvastatin, which reduces the amount of bad cholesterol in the blood. Brand-name medications are often protected by a patent. When the patent ends, companies can apply to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin making generic versions of the medication.
