"i just have this hunch that they would not have made a derivative without a good reason."
This is very common in pharamacology, once a med
proves profitable. Try out all the possible changes (derivatives) you can make to the current med and see which ones work. A new brand is born. Sometimes it is not really that different from the original and mostly just extend patents or allow other companies to come out with their "me too" version. In other cases, such as benzos, there are signicifant differences.
