FDA Drug Inspectors
Are they the Same
Three Times the Savings
Once a drug companies patent on a drug expires, any drug manufacturer can then produce the same exact drug. Of course, they can't use their trade name, but the drug itself then belongs to the public. Drugs are not cornflakes. They are a chemical, or combination of chemicals and this is why generic salt or baking soda will taste and look exactly like a name brand product, just as a drug will.
Any drug that is Oked to be imported into the U.S has to be manufactured under the watchful eye of FDA inspectors who over see the manufacturing process, no matter what country it is in. This means that generic meds manufactured in china are going to be the same exact meds in every, way shape and form as the same generic meds that are manufactured in the U.S.
Drugs are produced From Chemicals
Do you remember the last time that you tried switching to generic sugared corn flakes? You poured them in your bowl, took a big bite and something was wrong. They tasted different and in fact they looked little different too. They were smaller and the sugar on the flakes themselves was clumpy.
If you buy generic meds, can you expect the same experience? Once you open the package and use them, will there be some little disappointing surprise that you will encounter? The answer to that is no and the reasons are simple. Drugs are made from chemicals that are produced and combined to exacting standards.
