Branded medicines or generic explained

Adults are usually dependent on medicines suffering from problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, hypothyroid, etc. There are two types of medication available generic and branded; the only difference between them is the price else they are exactly the same in composition, dosage, use, effects, side effects, route of administration, risks, safety, and strength.

It is usually assumed that generic medicine being cheap might not be effective as compared to branded drugs.  People do doubt on the quality of the generic medicine, but the fact is that generic medicines are equally effective as branded due to the same composition of salts.

They are cheap because the manufacturer does not spend a fortune of money on advertising it and has not invested time and money in research and development of that particular medicine. When a brand introduces a medicine in the market, it does all the research, advertising and marketing required bringing its sales up, which makes it an expensive choice.

Smart strategies are adopted to commence manufacturing of the generic ones. Various myths are floating in the market as follows:-

Generic drugs are manufactured poorly in quality.

All the medicines are FDA approved; thus, they have to surpass the quality check guidelines.

Genetic medicine takes a long time to show results.

Again the same fact, FDA confirms generic drugs are fast and effective as the brand-name products.

Generic medicines may differ in color, flavor, or appearance due to the trademark laws under which no one can imitate medicine's exact look.

 If you have trust in generic drugs and are on a tight budget, you may go with generic medicines, and if you don't trust generic and are willing to pay extra bucks for branded medicines that happily buy. Both have a good market, so it all depends on the end-user demand. 

Whatever is the requirement, generic or branded Propharma works with a number of pharmacies supplying a number of generic and branded medicines catering to multiple pharmacies across the country.
