What's the difference between generic medicines and brand name medication?
Generic medicines are named after the chemical they contain, and don't normally come under a separate brand name. Brand name medicines on the other hand have a name that's assigned to them by the manufacturing company. Companies that produce brand name medication do not own a patent on the chemical which means generic medicine manufacturing companies can easily produce the exact same drug at a lower cost. Generic medicines therefore offer the same medication that brand name medicine companies do, but at a fraction of the price.
Why are brand name medicines so expensive?
A large part of the price tag for a typical brand name medicine goes towards supporting research, marketing activities and promotional and advertising campaigns. Moreover, brand name medicine manufacturing companies also incur heavy expenses at the time of securing an FDA approval. Generic medicine manufacturing companies are spared all of these expenses, and are thus able to pass on the cost saving benefits to their customers.
What kind of quality assurance do you offer?
When it comes to medication, quality is not optional; it's a necessity. We know that the better our products, the more popular they will be, and hence we take utmost care in the sourcing and manufacture of these medicines. Our products are manufactured in India by a licensed company that has been approved by that country's FDA. We make sure that every pill adheres to the strictest quality control standards, and make sure all documentation is fool proof.
Why are your pills different in color and shape from brand name medicines containing the same compound?
This is because things like name, shape and color of the pills are copyrighted by the manufacturing company. In other words, the chemical compound contained in both generic and brand name medication is the same, but the brand name manufacturing company has a patent on the name, shape and color of the pill. The chemical however, cannot be patented by anybody, which is why generic medicine companies can offer the same medicine to you, but these pills will differ in appearance from brand name medicines.
I see you have different doses of Viagra. What is the difference between these two?
We offer generic Viagra in two different dosage sizes - 50 mg and 100 mg. As you might know, Viagra contains a drug known as Sildenafil. The dosage amount denotes the amount of Sildenafil present in the pill. For instance, the 50 mg pill will have 50 mg of Sildenafil, while the 100 mg pill will have 100 mg of Sildenafil in each pill. If you're unsure of the dosage you need to take, we recommend you begin with a 25 mg dose. We don't offer 25 mg pills; you can however, break the 50 mg pill in half and take just one section of it. If you feel it's not effective enough, you can increase your preferred dosage to 50 mg.
What kind of medication do you offer? What is the difference in efficacy and recommended dosage for each of them?
Here's a list of the medicines we offer, and a breakdown of their dosage:
