Top Generic choice
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

AGGRENOX is an FDA-approved prescription medication to lower the risk of stroke in people who have had either a TIA (transient ischemic attack or mini-stroke) or stroke due to a blood clot. It contains a combination of aspirin and dipyridamole. Aspirin is in a group of drugs called salicylates (sa-LIS-il-ates). It works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain, fever, and inflammation.
In a clinical study, AGGRENOX helped reduce the risk of stroke in patients who had a TIA or stroke due to a blood clot. Patients taking AGGRENOX twice a day were 22% less likely to have stroke than patients taking low-dose aspirin (25 mg twice daily) alone. Additionally, over 90% of patients on AGGRENOX remained free of recurrent stroke.
