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.
Hyzaar is a prescription high blood pressure treatment medication that may also be prescribed to lower the risk of stroke for people with heart disease. Hyzaar is a combination medication with Hydrochlorothiazide and Losartan as the active ingredients. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that works by preventing the body from absorbing too much salt and fluid retention occurring as a result. Losartan is an ARB blocker drug that keeps blood vessels from narrowing and reduces blood pressure in this way. You can buy Hyzaar with a prescription here at Canpharm.
