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.
Vyzulta is a glaucoma treatment medication for open-angle glaucoma that may also be prescribed to treat ocular hypertension. Latanoprostene Bunod is a prostaglandin-analog drug that is formulated to reduce intraocular pressure in the eye and take away the primary contributor for either of these degenerative eye conditions. It promotes more fluid draining out of the eye and Vyzulta is administered as a drop that goes right into the eye. You can buy Vyzulta eye drops with a prescription here at Canpharm.
