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.

Hypertension is when a person's blood pressure is higher than normal, and the point at which that is determined to be the case is a systolic measurement of 140/90 mmHg or higher. Hypertension is a major cause of death worldwide, and because hypertension can often have no easily identified symptoms there are estimates that nearly half of people with hypertension are not even aware their blood pressure is too high. Genetics, age, being overweight, inactivity, a high-sodium diet, and excessive alcohol intake increase a person's chances of having hypertension.
