I also agree that generic drugs should be promoted as so much will be saved by our people by choosing them over the hyped and marketed ones. i agree riri. the botikas in the barangays should also be selective of the generic drugs they sell and not just buy any generic meds available because indeed, there are generic ones which are inferior and of low quality.

I bought a generic paracetamol but hindi nawawala ang lagnat. when I had him take calpol, nawala agad. I am all for generic, pero how sure are we really na they are of the same quality? i dint want ot sacrifice my family's health naman di ba? I also had an experience re generic fever meds for my kids.
