Branded medications and generic drugs are two very different types of drugs. Branded medications are made by pharmaceutical companies and sold under the name of that company.

Generic drugs are manufactured when a patent for a branded product has expired. This allows other manufacturers to make the same or similar drugs under different names.

Branded meds are often more expensive than generic versions of the same drug because they’re made by a brand-name manufacturer. In addition to this, they may also come with extra marketing costs built into their price tag.

Gaining approval from the FDA is not easy for generic manufacturers. However, once this approval has been obtained, it allows them to produce their versions of established drugs at a lower cost. Because these drugs are so much cheaper than their branded counterparts, many consumers choose them over branded products. This is due to their ability to save money without sacrificing quality or effectiveness.

A pharmacist may also substitute a generic drug product for the brand-name medication without consulting with your doctor unless the prescription says “dispense as written.”
