Primary Issue
Includes generic/patent/bioequivalence/therapeutic-interchangeability claims that are not supported by the provided label excerpts.
Suggested Improvement
Limit claims to the label-supported dosage forms and strengths (capsules 100/300/400 mg, tablets 600/800 mg, oral solution 250 mg/5 mL), and omit or clearly qualify generic/patent/bioequivalence/interchangeability statements unless supported by the provided label text.
