Standard Text: Select all that apply.
1. “This is a different brand from the one you use at home, but it will give you the same pain relief.”
2. “Your health care provider feels we can safely substitute this drug for the drug you use at home.”
3. “This generic drug is the one we have on formulary in the pharmacy. It has the same ingredients as the one you use at home.”
4. “This is what we have in the pharmacy. Go ahead and take it for now and let me know if it doesn’t relieve the pain.”
