Understanding Generic vs. Brand-Name Medications
Are They the Same?Many people wonder whether generic medications are the same as brand-name medications. The short answer is yes. The active ingredients in both types of medications are the same, and so is their effect on the body.However, there may be some differences in inactive ingredients between generic and brand-name medications. For example, the color, flavor, and shape of the tablets or capsules may differ, but these differences do not affect the medication's effectiveness. The inactive ingredients are added to generic medications so they can be safely manufactured, stored, and taken. They are also added to ensure that the medication releases over time as intended and to prevent misuse or abuse.
