    <div>enlighten me....what's the 6 week waiting period? My BC was the one that was recalled last time but wasn't one of the lot #'s. The last time I re-filled it, I had to get the name brand, not the generic. Will the be offering the generic again? I hope so, the name brand is so much more expensive!</div>
