| Summary, etc. | Objective: <br/>The thought of providing the <br/>best <br/>quality of medicin<br/>es at cheaper costs made the governments <br/>to think of generic drug substitutions in <br/>order to minimize the economic burden. This study was designed to investigate the attitude of physicians and pharmacists towa<br/>rds generic <br/>medicines and thus to reduce the gap<br/> between them. <br/>Method<br/>s: <br/>This is a simple, prospective, cross<br/>-sectional, comparative study conducted for a period of 3 mo<br/>. 100 Subjects (50 pharmacists and 50 <br/>physicians) were included in this study. <br/>Subjects who ever graduated with the pharmacy degree and<br/> working as pharmacists<br/>, as well as clinical <br/>practitioners,<br/> were included in this study. Data <br/>collected using a validated questionnaire.<br/>Result<br/>s: <br/>60% of physicians and 80% of pharmacists were confident enough in dispensing generic products. 56% of physicia<br/>ns agree that <br/>pharmacists play a vital role in providing assistance on <br/>the <br/>use<br/> of generic medicines. 70% of physicians and 90% of pharmacists agreed that the <br/>generic medicines are of less expensive.<br/>Conclusio<br/>n: <br/>Our Study concludes that pharmacist’s shows <br/>a higher<br/> positive response towards the usage of generic products than physicians. Generic <br/>drugs typically cost 30% to 60% less than their brand products. In addition, patients taking generic drugs seem to be more wi<br/>lling to continue therapy. |
