Worth knowing
Between Canada and Spain the same molecule changes name and, often, strength. The table above separates presentations published at the same strength from those where only the molecule is shared: where the first part is empty, it is the "same molecule, different dose" rows that answer. Check the dose with a pharmacist before swapping one product for another.
