What is the difference between a brand Zithromax drug and a Generic Zithromax drug?
A Generic Zithromax drug is a medication for which the original manufacturer has lost patent protection. Because of this, other manufacturers are allowed to produce and sell exactly the same medication at a lower, more competitive price. The generic Zithromax drug is exactly the same medication as the original brand name drug, simply made by another company. Due to strict regulations on the generic drug industry, these drugs must provide the same therapeutic effect as the brand Zithromax drug.
