What is the difference between Generic Version and Brand Version of the same drug?
Generic Version refers to the name of the drug ingredients

Brand Version refers to the brand name of the drug, that is, the name it is called when advertising

For example, Yan Di is an antibiotic (anti-inflammatory drug), which is often advertised, as everyone knows. Its trade name is Yan Di, and its pharmaceutical ingredient is roxithromycin. In fact, there are many pharmaceutical ingredients that are roxithromycin. As long as the pharmaceutical ingredient is roxithromycin, no matter what its product name is, its function and effect are the same, but it is not well-known without advertising, and everyone doesn't know it.

Generic Version is roxithromycin

Brand Version is Yan Di

Generally, Brand Version is more expensive than Generic version, because the natural cost of Brand promotion is higher.
