Why are Generic Drugs so inexpensive?
Although generic drugs are chemically identical to their branded counterparts, they are typically sold at substantial discounts from the branded price. The price difference is determined by a prime cost: brand-name product manufacturers spend tremendous amounts of money on research, testing, medical observation and analysis, various non-manufacturing overhead, branding and advertising, etc.; however, to produce a generic drug it is only necessary to purchase a chemical formula. As a result, you get world-class drugs at a reasonable price!
