entecavir from Cipla

Anyone with Hep B taking the entecavir from Cipla ... sold out of a Canadian Pharmacy?  I take Baraclude and it is doing wonders but the cost is a killer.  entecavir is the generic but wondering if anyone out there has had success using it instead of the brand name version baraclude.

My email address is ***@****

in italy we have everything free by healthcare system, both drugs, tests, doctors, so i use brand baraclude and viread.

they are just easy chemical, generics are the same but i did not know cipla had etv generics too maybe they just did, i knew ranbaxy

anyway just keep in mind cipla and ranbaxy have so huge market that many generic drugs worldwide are made by these drug makers only (the us drug makers dont even bother to produce at low cost)
this is why the biggest drug makers in the world are the indian producers now while US just keep making patents drugs to make very big money only...hopefully this insane market will end soon hopefully by the crisis someday
