A generic drug is a version of a brand-name drug that has the same dosage, strength, safety, quality, route of administration, performance, and intended use. Generic drugs only become available after the manufacturer proves the drug has the same active ingredients and works in the same way in the body, in the same amount of time, as the brand-name drug. Generic medications only differ from their brand-name counterparts in their price, with generic drugs usually costing less than the brand-name drug, and possibly in their shape or color, since trademark laws prevent a generic drug from looking exactly like a brand-name drug. YouDrugstore only sells the highest quality generic drugs, produced in some of the best manufacturing plants in the world that are approved by Health Canada as well as other international regulatory bodies.
If you usually take a brand name pill and have instead ordered a generic drug, your pills may look different. Although they may look different, generic versions of a drug have the same active ingredients and work in exactly the same way as the brand-name medication. The appearance of medication or packaging may also differ from country to country, even though the strength is the same. For example, Celexa 20MG is usually a peach-colored pill, but in Canada it is white and slightly smaller, even though the same company manufactures both pills. Two different brands of generic medication may also look different because they are made by different manufacturers, although they are equivalent in every other way.
Canada has high standards and regulations governing the manufacturing of medication and health products and the licensing of doctors and pharmacists. Despite some possible cosmetic differences, medication from Canada is the same quality and strength as medication from other areas like the United States.
Unlike some regions of the world, Canadian medication prices are regulated with limits on how much patients have to pay for their prescriptions. This means that Canadian drug costs are often lower than other regions.
No. YouDrugstore does not sell any narcotics or controlled substances. If you have a prescription for any such drugs, please visit your local pharmacy.
