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.
TactuPump Forte is a topical acne treatment medication available by prescription and used to make acne outbreaks less frequent and less severe. Adapalene clears blocked pores so that they are not blocked and causing whiteheads or blackheads to develop. Cutibacterium in clogged pores is also a part of acne, and the other primary ingredient – Benzoyl Peroxide – eliminates these bacteria and reduces skin inflammation so there is less redness. You can buy TactuPump Forte with a prescription here at Canpharm.
