How to Get Cheaper Medicines Online

How to Get Cheaper Medicines Online

The high costs of medicines have driven many people to despair. Unless you have a Health Care or medical plan, medications can be extremely expensive.

Generic Drugs

However, help is at hand in the form of generic drugs. What are generic drugs? When a drug company first invents a drug, that company is the only one allowed to sell that drug for a certain period of years. This is usually 10 years in the USA.

After this period, other companies are allowed to manufacture and market the drug. These drugs are called generics. The original drug is a called a brand name medication. Brand name drugs and their generics are exactly the same in terms of active pharmaceutical ingredients .

The generic drugs will usually look different as they are made


by a different company although the active ingredient is the same and it works in exactly the same way. The only difference between brand name drugs and generics is that generics will always be less expensive.

Online Pharmacies

As well as generics being less expensive, there is the added bonus of the Internet pharmacies which are engaged in cut throat competition for an expanding market. The result for comsumers is that with drugs becoming ever more expensive especially in the USA, the internet pharmacies are filling the need to supply drugs at affordable prices.
