1) What is the difference between brand name prescription drugs and medication and the generic drug equivalent?

A generic drug is a medication for which the original manufacturer has lost its original patent protection and other drug manufacturers have produced the exact medication at a much lower price for the consumer. The generic drug is the exact same medication as the original brand name drug, and because of strict industry regulations enforced by the federal government these drugs must provide the same therapeutic effect as the brand name drug.
