# How to Find Generic Alternatives with Copilot

Copilot maps brand-to-generic drug relationships as structured data for building cost comparison features. Generate formulary lookup tools, create brand-to-generic mapping databases, and build medication cost optimization features for insurance or benefits platforms directly from the API output.

## Setup

{"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}

## Steps

1. Add ToolRouter to Copilot MCP config
2. In Copilot Chat: "Look up generic alternatives for Advair"
3. Copilot returns active ingredient and generic options
4. Use the data in your healthcare application
5. Build brand-to-generic mapping features

## Example Prompt

```
Find all generic equivalents of Prozac so I can build a medication cost comparison feature.
```

## Tips

- Build formulary comparison tools using the structured data
- Map brand names to generics programmatically for cost optimization
- Useful for insurance and benefits platforms
