UK Generic drugs are similar to originals

Generic drugs may have introduced in the pharmaceutical market only about a decade back, but they have captured the market so easily that one would think that they have been around for ages. But the fact is they have followed the original pills only recently and now have a huge fan following for people have realised their potentials. They are just like the original version of the molecule right from the action mechanism to side effects to dosage patterns to precautionary measures that need to be taken while or before consuming them.

In UK, generic drugs have a strong foot holding which is growing stronger each year, as people are now more open to these products as they accept them just like the replica of the brand version. For instance, Sildenafil Citrate may responsible for a person’s accrual coital performance and have been patented by Pfizer on the name of Viagra but now there are many other generic products like Kamagra, Edegra, Penegra, Caverta, etc which contain the same molecule and act just like the Viagra itself.

It clearly shows that in UK these drugs are doing fairly well as they have same effect as that of branded medications and have saved lives of very many people.
