How does gene amplification cause drug resistance?
When a drug is administered, it is given at a prescribed dose so the active ingredient can bind and inhibit a particular enzyme, or target. Gene amplificatin increases the amount of copies of a particular area of chromosome and thus increases the amount of mRNA which will be transcribed. If the target is amplified over and over, it reaches a point to where the drug is not binding to enough of the substrate to be effective. Essentially, gene amplification dilutes a normal dose and in order to combat it, higher dosages are needed.

What is the difference in a name brand Lortab 10 and a generic Lortab10?
Generic Lortab and it's generic will deliver the same medication to you over a given amount of time, however the concentration of the drug in your body at any given instance will be different. This is the basis of something called AB Rating, which is used by the Orange Book to determine which drugs pharmacists can substitute for a given prescription written by a medical provider. What does this all mean? It means that if you are given Lortab 10, your body will absorb the 10 mg of hydrocodone over a certain time. If you take generic hydrocodone 10mg (with acetaminophen of course) your body will also absorb the same amount of drug. What will be different is the rate at which the drug is absorbed and removed. For example, with the brand name drug, you might have a more steady concentration of drug in your body at any given moment than with the generic. (This is sometimes the case with pain medications.)

Increased dependency and tolerance basically means you'll need more of the given drug to the the same amount of high, and if you ingest the same amount you have been you won't feel as high, because your body is getting used to/immune to it.Dependence is when you have become addicted to the drug and then have a real physical or psychological need for the drug to function. That is why when you quit you go through withdrawal and it is best not to quit cold turkey if you want to succeed.
