Shipping Regulations
Many countries allow individuals to order a 90-day supply of personal medications. It is the customer’s responsibility to understand and comply with their local laws and regulations regarding medication importation. If you order more than a 90-day supply of personal medication and your order is held by customs, LifesPharma is not liable for the issue.
Understanding Generic Drugs
What are Generic Drugs?
Generic drugs are medications produced without patent protection. They contain the same active ingredients and provide the same therapeutic effect as brand-name drugs, adhering to the same quality standards.
Why are Generic Drugs Cheaper?
- Development Costs: Brand-name drugs are more expensive due to the high costs and lengthy time required for development, testing, and marketing.
- Patent Expiry: Once a drug's patent expires, other manufacturers can produce generic versions, significantly reducing costs by up to 80%.
- Production Efficiency: Generic manufacturers utilize existing formulas and do not incur the costs of proving safety and efficacy through clinical trials, as these have already been conducted by the brand-name company.
- Shared Manufacturing: Often, brand-name and generic drugs are produced in the same facilities, ensuring no compromise in quality standards.
India is a leading global manufacturer of generic drugs, home to numerous well-established and US FDA-approved companies such as Cipla, Ranbaxy, Torrent, Sun Pharmaceuticals, and more. These companies maintain stringent manufacturing and quality standards, making generic drugs a safe and cost-effective alternative to brand-name medications.
LifesPharma is dedicated to providing high-quality generic medications that offer significant cost savings without compromising safety or efficacy.
