For example if you compare the brand Excedrine to it's specialty products. The migrain headache medicine is absolutely the same as the regular formula. Compare the two and see. It's the same dosage ingriedient and the same active ingredient. The difference is the migraine packaging cost around $7 while the orignal is about $3.50. The same is true for thier tension headache formula. Not only is their a difference in cost but with the tension headache it contains a little more caffeine than the others.

 I have noticed alot of this in OTC products. Mostly just read the ingrediants carefully to see if you are benefiting from the higher priced items. I'm sure some company's products are on the up and up as far as paying the extra money that has been advertised as being better for that particular condition.

It has been a sore spot with me for a long time. So I just decided to let the public know if they are buying these specialty products from Excederin you can get the original formula and it do just as well and you don't have to pay the extra price.

I have always felt the same way too, and always compare the ingredients.

I could not get my ex-wife to understand that though, but some people are very stubborn.!
