Candy Crush Saga is a hugely popular game by King apps. It is available for play on both Android and Apple devices. Earlier this year Amazon shortly released the game for their popular Kindle Fire and Kindle Fire HD tablets. The game worked well on the devices but soon players learned that they could not sync their progress to their Facebook pages. This is because Amazon no longer offers the app in their Kindle store.

Kindle owners can still download, as well as sync their progress to their Facebook account with the following instructions.

I'm constantly asked by people in my day job of why generics cost so much less than brand name drugs. Then the inevitable follow-up is usually "are they safe to take?" Let me first answer why brand name medications are so expensive and then we'll tackle the other two questions.

The FDA requires all pharmceutical companies to file what is called an iNDA(intial new drug application) proving that the drug applied for has passed chemical and stability testing. Only after this application has been approved can the company enter into the first of three clinical trials. Stage one clinical trials study a small group of volunteers and focus on safety. If successful, clinical two trials will focus on a slightly larger group and will study effectiveness. Stage three trials, which can include thousands of volunteers, focuses on dosing and side effects. It is the third trial that takes the longest and can include nearly half of a company's development expense.

If the clinical trials are successful, and a very small minority make it out of the three trials, the company can submit an NDA for final approval. Before one pill is produced for prescribing, the company may have invested nearly a decade into research and billions in dollars.

Now to the other questions, why are generic drugs cheaper? In 1984, Congress passed the Drug Price Competition and Patent Restoration Act in an effort to lower the cost of prescription drugs. The bill stated that generic companies only had to file an aNDA(abbreviated new drug application) proving that their drug was equivalent to the the brand name drug. This shortened the time it took to get generic medications on the market and increased competition with more generic manufacturers producing drugs. As far as are generic drugs safe, I would say for the most part, if they are considered AB rated equivalent, the answer is yes. Because the FDA does allow for a small difference in potency though, I would recommend that patients stick with one particular manufacturer and not go back and forth between brand name or other generics. This is especially for drugs like Coumadin and Dilantin, where labs are required.


Of course there is also the issue of drug lawsuits from lawyers like 1-800-BAD-DRUG. Right now most generic companies are not included in these lawsuits because they did not do the original safety testing. If the state and federal courts start allowing lawsuits to include these generic makers then fewer will risk the increased liability and generic drug costs may rise again.
