A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, 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 drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks 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 develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Thalitone is a hypertension treatment medication used to effectively lower blood pressure and lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage caused by high blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that increases urine production so that extra salt and water in the body cannot contribute to higher blood pressure, plus the reduction of edema and breathing problems caused by fluid in the lungs if those are accompanying hypertension symptoms. You can buy Thalitone generic with a prescription here at Canpharm.
