TREATMENT OF OSTEOPOROSIS: CLINICAL EXPERIENCE IN USING A GENERIC DRU
https://doi.org/10.14412/1996-7012-2011-648
Abstract
Interest has recently been aroused in generic drugs because of the reduction of government expenditures on treatment. These drugs must meet
the same standards of quality, effectiveness, and safety as those for original medicines. The paper discusses the concepts of biological and pharmaceutical
drug equivalence, which permit original and generic drugs to be equalized in rights. Bioequivalence is considered using as an example
alendronate that is extensively used to treat osteoporosis.
