What is a Generic Drug?

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.

Description

Lupron Depot-Ped is a medication for early puberty, available by prescription. It is used to prevent precocious (early onset) puberty in children. Leuprolide Acetate, a GnRH agonist drug, suppresses the natural sex hormones that cause early onset puberty, allowing patients to transition into puberty in a more natural and age-appropriate manner. This medication also protects children from the stunted growth and/or emotional, psychological, and behavioral problems that can accompany central precocious puberty. You can buy Lupron Depot-Ped from Canada and Canpharm for the best price.
