Generic Replacements

The Alabama Attorney General has stepped in to prevent district attorney suits against CVS, Walgreen, Wal-Mart and Rite Aid. The attorneys allege that these pharmacies filled prescriptions with generic drugs, even when doctors did not specify the use of generics.

The district attorneys claim the Alabama AG is protecting big business and vow that voters will remember this in the next election.

"If that's the position he wants to take, good luck in the next election," said District Attorney Arthur Green of Jefferson County's Bessemer Division.
