Generic Concerta is the same drug as Concerta and only differs in its price, dosage strengths, and some of its inactive ingredients. However, some types of extended-release methylphenidate tablets or capsules <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK482451\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are available in different dosage strengths than Concerta<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so the prescriber may need to adjust the prescription accordingly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>RELATED: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/concerta-generic\/\"><b>Concerta generic: Why it\u2019s not the same as brand-name<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"3-ask-your-prescriber-about-alternative-generic-medications\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Ask your prescriber about alternative generic medications<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concerta is a chemical variation of methylphenidate. Other types of methylphenidate and methylphenidate ER work the same way, but immediate-release methylphenidate will require dosing two or three times a day rather than one. Any of these methylphenidate medications can be substituted for the higher-priced Concerta. Generic amphetamines also work like methylphenidate, though they have a different side effect profile and may carry a greater risk of abuse or dependence. They, too, are effective and affordable alternatives to Concerta. Ask your healthcare provider for medical advice concerning all of these options.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"4-ask-for-a-free-sample\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Ask for a free sample<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a DEA Schedule II drug, it is uncommon for prescribers to have samples of Concerta on hand, but it is worth a try.
