Is There a Generic Form of Ortho Evra? Is it as Dangerous as the Original?

Women who use Ortho Evra ask about generic forms of the patch. Currently, there is no generic form available, but there are other important aspects of the Ortho Evra patch they may want to ask about. The Ortho Evra patch may cause heart attacks, blood clots and strokes in its users in addition to several other side effects.
