What
the experts say |
 |
"Since generic
drugs generally sell for less than brand name drugs,
many people falsely believe that generics must be inferior
to brand-name products. Generic drugs contain exactly
the same active ingredients as the brand-name drugs
and are just as safe and effective."
Doug Sporn, Director
FDA Office of Generic Drugs
