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.
The Flovent inhaler is an asthma maintenance inhaler used ongoingly to reduce the severity and frequency of asthma attacks. The active ingredient Fluticasone is a corticosteroid medication that suppresses the inflammation that causes the airway to constrict and produces breathing difficulties and wheezing during an asthma attack.
The Flovent HFA is a good choice for long-term asthma control, but patients can be aware that it may take 1 to 2 weeks to see reductions in asthma symptoms and that a Fluticasone inhaler will not replace a fast-acting bronchodilator (asthma rescue inhaler). Buy Flovent inhaler from Canpharm.
