Brand named drugs are those drugs that were first developed by the pharmaceutical company. Generic is a COPY of a drug.

In my opinion Brand name drugs are a little more potent (better). The more you copy something the less it becomes.

My dad worked for a pharmaceutical company Lilly Corp. and says Brand is better. Its more expensive but better.

This is true when it comes to opiate pain killers!!

The US FDA requires that a generic drug has the same pharmacological effect as the branded drug. The difference between them is the price and the name on the package.
