RE: Know Your Chemicals | Acetaminophen | Aspirin | Ibuprofen
In the US there are two types of medicines Brand names and Generics. The Brand name medicines cost a lot more to buy, and the generics are very cheap, can go as cheap as 1 cent or even less per tablet.
wow
I see! In Russia its popualr to make such posts with comparison, maybe it would be popular on steem if you did the same. As in to show people that they dont need to overpay for the brand medecine
The problem in the US medicines go on generic after 10 years or so, so newer medicines are hard to get cheap in the country. People who need constant supply of expensive medicines, travel to Canada or Mexico to purchase supplies for 3 months, some use online prescription services. There is not much to compare in the US, if your medicine is not available as generic, there is no cheaper alternative but to buy from outside the country.
