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.
Nardil is a prescription antidepressant medication used to treat depression for people who struggle to keep their mood stable and are debilitated because of this mental health disorder. The active medicinal ingredient in Nardil is Phenelzine, and it works to restore the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain so that feelings of depression are minimized, and the person is more able to function normally and have a more positive outlook. Nardil is often prescribed when patients have had inferior results from other antidepressant medications. Buy Nardil from Canada and Canpharm and get the lowest price on the medication.
Depression is a mental health disorder when a person’s mood, motivation, and outlook is chronically diminished because of a lack of serotonin and dopamine transmitters in the brain. Depression symptoms can include hopelessness, negative perceptions, irritability, restlessness, insomnia or hypersomnolence, irritability, and loss of interest in friends, family, or activities that were enjoyed previously.
