Abstract

High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a prevalent heart ailment that affects a large proportion of the world's population. High blood pressure medication is commonly used to treat the condition. Antihypertensive drugs are prescribed in medicine with both brand and generic names. The goal of this study is to compare generic and branded versions of two commonly prescribed antihypertensive drugs, telmisartan and metoprolol succinate, based on quality. This study considered a number of evaluation factors, including weight variation, weight uniformity, hardness, brittleness, disintegration, and dissolution. The use of brand-name or generic drugs has recently caused much debate on a global scale. Furthermore, the governments of a number of countries actively encourage the use of generic pharmaceuticals instead of name-brand medications. A generic drug has therapeutic efficacy similar to its brand-name counterpart and includes the same active ingredient or substances. Generic drugs are much less expensive than name-brand medications since they do not have to go through the extensive and costly preclinical or clinical trials that brand-name medications undertake, which significantly raises the cost of those prescriptions. This analysis provides an overview of the comparative effectiveness of metoprolol succinate and telmisartan generics versus name-brand drugs. The objective also attempts to draw attention to the discrepancies in prices between the two categories, as well as the laws and controls surrounding both pharmaceuticals.
