Medicines are prescribed by doctors by
brand name & not by the generics (Ingredients). Hence we end up paying more
money for the same medicine. Follow these few steps to know more & start
saving on your medical bills.
1. Log on to www.medguideindia.com
2. Click on 'Drugs'
3. Click on 'Brand'
4. Type the brand name which you are
using (e. g. Metocard XL (50 mg). The site will also help you with drop down
menu) & Click on 'Search'
5. Click on 'Generics'. It will display
the ingredients of the tablet.
6. Click on 'matched brands'
7. Don't be surprised to see that same
drug is available at very low cost also. And that to by other reputed
manufacturer. e. g. Metocard XL 50 is for Rs. 62.00 & same drug by Cipla
(Mepol) is available ONLY @ Rs. 7.00.
