I had met people who have a complete knowledge of the generic medicines, yet they still choose the brand without giving any reason.
Why are they doing that?

I just want to jump in to say this is probably dependant on where you live or which pharmacy you go to. In my state, if the doctor writes for the brand name, the pharmacy MUST fill the brand name. They can call the doctor to get approval for the generic, but they won’t just fill the generic at the patient’s request. YMMV
Good to know. I thought it was Federal, but it might just be a PA thing. But I know for sure there’s a mandatory poster at my pharmacy saying exactly that.
