Is Estradiol/Levonorgestrel a Generic Version of Climara Pro?
No — estradiol and levonorgestrel are the active ingredients in Climara Pro (and other medications); they are not a generic version of Climara Pro. What can be confusing is that, oftentimes, the active ingredient of a drug is referred to as the “generic name.” The generic name is different from a generic version of a medicine. In order for there to be a generic version of a medicine, the original medicine must have gone off-patent and another company besides the original manufacturer must make the product.
