campaigns lately and the prices of these drugs make them worth a second look it works like this when a company develops a new drug it gets a patent which gives the company exclusive rights to sell and manufacture the drug after 17 yean the patent runs out and the chemical equivalent of the drug can be manufactured and sold by its generic name generics can be sold more cheaply because their price

a survey of their pharmacy stock and found that on the average generic drugs cost 57 percent less than brand names one hundred tablets of revco aspirin cost 43 cants while 100 tablets of bayer aspirin

similar or identical although not always in the same amounts but the brand names cost up to 1 more so why do customers continue to buy brand names two reasons widely given are advertising and habit
