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.
PERTZYE® (pancrelipase) is indicated for the treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis or other conditions. Limitation of Use: PERTZYE is not interchangeable with other pancrelipase products.
Fibrosing colonopathy is associated with high-dose use of pancreatic enzyme replacement. Exercise caution when doses of PERTZYE® (pancrelipase) exceed 2,500 lipase units/kg body weight per meal (or greater than 10,000 lipase units/kg body weight per day). To avoid irritation of oral mucosa, do not chew PERTZYE or retain in the mouth. Hyperuricemia may develop. Consider monitoring uric acid levels in patients with hyperuricemia, gout, or renal impairment. There is theoretical risk of viral transmission with all pancreatic enzyme products including PERTZYE. Exercise caution when administering pancrelipase to a patient with a known allergy to proteins of porcine origin. The most common adverse reactions (=10% of patients treated with PERTZYE) are diarrhea, dyspepsia, and cough.
