Neither option is 'better' - but one is cheaper.
Any Australian who has filled a prescription at their local chemist will have been asked if they want a branded product or the generic version.
Generic brands must also be "bioequivalent" to their brand-name counterparts, meaning "if you take the same dose of a generic medicine as an existing medicine, the same amount of active ingredient is absorbed by your body over the same period of time". "Inactive ingredients do not affect how well the medicine works, but may effect the taste, colour, dispersibility or crushability of a medicine," Pham explained.Individuals may feel there is a disadvantage to using a generic version of a medication if it includes inactive ingredients that don't suit them.
