This Reply is intended as a refutation of the preceding Comment [Oikonomou and Bagci, Phys. Rev. E 96, 056101 (2017)10.1103/PhysRevE.96.056101] on our paper [Plastino, Phys. Rev. E 94, 012145 (2016).1539-375510.1103/PhysRevE.94.012145]. We show that the Tsallis probability distribution of our paper does not coincide with the Tsallis distribution studied by Oikonomou and Bagci. Consequently, their findings do not apply to our paper.
