Question

I want information about generic medicines

Answer 1

A generic drug is a pharmaceutical drug that is equivalent to a brand-name product in dosage, strength, route of administration, quality, performance and intended use. The term may also refer to any drug marketed under its chemical name without advertising,or to the chemical makeup of a drug rather than the brand name under which the drug is sold.

Answer 2

Generic drugs are copies of brand-name drugs that have exactly the same dosage, intended use, effects, side effects, route of administration, risks, safety, and strength as the original drug. In other words, their pharmacological effects are exactly the same as those of their brand-name counterparts.
