Generic drugs are pharmaceutical products that are equivalent to brand-name drugs in terms of dosage form, strength, route of administration, quality, performance characteristics, and intended use, but are marketed once the original patent protection on the brand-name drug has expired. Characteristically, generic drugs are significantly less expensive than their branded counterparts, offering a cost-effective alternative for consumers without compromising efficacy or safety. This price difference can be attributed to the fact that generic drug manufacturers do not incur the same costs as originators in terms of drug discovery, development, and marketing. Features of generic drugs include strict regulatory requirements for approval, ensuring they meet the same standards of quality, safety, and efficacy as brand-name drugs. The active ingredient in a generic drug is the same as in the brand-name drug, although some inactive ingredients may differ. The widespread availability of generic drugs plays a crucial role in healthcare systems globally by enhancing accessibility to essential medications, thus facilitating better health outcomes and contributing to the containment of healthcare costs.
