    I don't remember the last time we've brought branded items, majority of the time the knockoffs are better/just as good. By the way the same goes for paracetamol etc. I feel like some people get put off by using store brand medication but it's more than likely placebo effect that "it's not as good" when in reality they have the exact same ingredients🙂
