Why do you have such cheap branded medecines?
We keep low prices because we buy our medecines in the countries, which have a low drug tax, however all medicines are produced by original manufactures. Another reason of low prices is purchasing of the drugs in association with a large group of partners in bulk quantity. Also we use cheaper but quality method of delivery.
Why are generic drugs cheaper than branded medicines?
Manufactureres that produce generics do not spend much money on development of a new preparation, they just need to reproduce something that was developed before. That’s why the price for generics is much more affordable. Usually generics are let to be produced only when the original medication is being sold in the market for several years.
Is Generic the exact copy of the original?
If we study the chemical composition of the generic and the original, we’ll find out that in reality they are not identical (dublicates). They have similar “therapeutic core” but additional ingredients can differ either in quantitative or qualitative composition. Anyway it doesn’t influence on the effect.
