Seasonale vs seasonique. So confused.

Hey all, I've been lurking for a while but fortunately didn't have any problems to post about!
I've been taking generic seasonale for a few years now with great results. Last cycle, I switched pharmacists and they gave me a different brand of generics. It didn't have a name on the label but is produced by Lupin Pharmaceuticals. It is .15 levonorgestrel and .03 ethinyl estradiol.
Yesterday, my doctor sent in a refill. I noticed in the message that he refilled the prescription as seasonique, not seasonale. I looked at the ingredients and couldn't tell a difference. But I assume seasonique is different somehow. Should I call and ask it be changed to seasonale? And can I request a specific generic? I want the one I was on before the pharmacy changed it.
Thanks!
