Generic Alternatives to Brand-Name Medicines
The same active ingredient as the original brand, produced by licensed manufacturers — often at a fraction of the cost.
How generic medicines work
Three things to know before you choose a generic alternative. This is general information — always consult a healthcare professional.
Same active ingredient
A generic contains the same active molecule as the brand, in the same strength and dosage form. Only inactive ingredients such as coatings or fillers may differ between manufacturers.
Why they cost less
Once a medicine is off-patent, other licensed manufacturers can produce it without the original research and marketing overhead. That's why generics are typically offered at a lower reference price.
