How Generic Drugs are equivalent to Branded Drugs?
The same medication with the same generic ingredients is sold under different brand names in different countries, sometimes by the same multi-national company. And more importantly, at different prices, depending on the country, cost of manufacture, marketing investment, distribution and pharmacy chain margins, etc.
For example, the generic pharmacological name or ingredient for Soma is Carisoprodol, and its brand name in the UK is Carisoma.
Facts about Generic Drugs:
The Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality reports that, “consumer spending for prescribed medicines rose from $72.3 billion in 1997 to $154 billion in 2001 and will be $300 billion in 2004”. Considering most health insurance plans do not cover medication, the consumer is faced with incurring very high expenses for good health.
Consumers remain ignorant of cost effective and quality sources for prescription drugs. Almost all major pharmaceuticals and medications, which sell into the United States under various brand names, sell the same drugs under the same or different brand names in developing countries for a fraction of the cost incurred by consumers in other developed countries.
