Is there a generic brand of Lo-Ovral? You might want to ask your doctor or pharmacy. A generic version would have the same ingredients and doses, just made by a different company and therefore cheaper. That might save you more money. Anyway, you'll probably be fine with the switch - don't worry about it. I switched prescriptions (not the same as yours), and I barely noticed a difference - actually, I like the new one better!
