Plenity
What is a Generic Drug?
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Product Details
Description
Plenity is a medication that is used with diet and exercise to help patients manage their weight.
Plenity comes in individual pods that hold a single dose of three capsules.
Directions
Take Plenity as directed by your doctor. If you have any questions or concerns, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
The recommended dose is to take 3 capsules orally with water twice daily. Take 20-30 minutes before lunch and dinner. Drink two more glasses of water after taking the capsules.
Do not use Plenity if the pod or package is damaged or if the capsules are broken or crushed.
Ingredients
Plenity capsules contain superabsorbent hydrogel particles that fully hydrate and take up about a quarter of average stomach volume. When the particles are mixed with ingested foods, a larger volume is created with higher elasticity and viscosity in the stomach and small intestine, making you feel satisfied and full.
Contraindications
Do not take Plenity if you are pregnant or if you have ever had an allergic reaction to cellulose, citric acid, sodium stearyl fumarate, gelatin, or titanium dioxide.
Cautions
