What to ask your care team

“Do you use the authorized generic of BiCNU? It’s the same medicine, and it can cost less.”

It may look different from BiCNU (color, shape, or markings). That’s normal for an authorized generic.
Coverage depends on your plan. Your care team or insurer can tell you what you’d pay.
Don’t stop or change a medicine without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber.
