Generic Products

When a company develops a new medicine, it will always have a generic name as well as a brand name.

 

The generic name is the active ingredient in the medicine; for example, aspirin or ibuprofen.

The brand name is the name that the manufacturer uses to actually market the product.  The brand name helps customers recognise the product and tell it apart from other similar products.
