What are Generics? A generic
drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality,
how it is taken, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available
on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients
as the brand-name and works the same way in the body in the same amount of time.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is the generics
are less expensive and may look slightly different (e.g. different shape or color),
as trademark laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large
sums of money to invent a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies
can manufacture a copy of the brand-name drug and sell it at substantial discounts.
Lopid Description
Lopid is a lipid-lowering medicine which falls into the class known as ‘fibrates’. It is prescribed for people who have high cholesterol or triglycerides, and will act to lower these levels. It may also be prescribed for people with certain risk factors for cardiovascular disease, in which lipid-lowering therapy will be beneficial in reducing their overall risk.
This drug works by increasing the clearance of fats from the blood, thus reducing lipid levels. It is therefore important to maintain a healthy, low fat, low cholesterol diet in conjunction with this medicine.
