You probably got a generic of whatever was written on you perscription. Pharmacies will automatically fill generic unless you specify otherwise.

Most prescriptions have what is called a Brand name and what is called the Generic, most pharmacies fill prescriptions with Generic medications. They do this to save the patient lots of money. Same medicine just cheaper. With medications you really do pay for the name
