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.
Solodyn ER is an acne treatment medication used to reduce pimples and other types of skin blemished that occur with acne. Minocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic and it works by stopping the growth of bacteria that will worsen acne and lead to whiteheads and blackheads if allowed to grow in clogged pores of the skin. Acne vulgaris treatment can also be among Minocycline HCLD uses, and it is similarly effective for clearing non-nodular inflammatory skin lesions. You can buy Solodyn ER with a prescription here at Canpharm.
