Generic drugs are cost affordable alternatives to brand name
medications. A generic drug is one that contains the same
pharmaceutical agent as the brand name drug. Generics can be
produced once the patent of a brand name drug expires. Generic
companies are able to manufacture the same chemical
ingredients that are found in brand name drugs at
substantially reduced costs. In Canada all generic products
must meet stringent testing to ensure that these drugs work as
effectively as the brand name versions. This testing occurs
prior to any generic medication being allowed into the market.
In fact, the generic versions of some drugs are manufactured
by the same companies and at the same locations as the brand
name versions.
Make sure you ask your doctor about the availability of
generic drugs. After all, it's your money - why not use it
wisely!
