« Back to Press Releases & Article Home Generic Viagra Online Date : August 16, 2006 It's extremely convenient, it's private, and it's much cheaper to buy Generic Viagra online. A number of these sites sell them in the name of "Generic Viagra" or Generic Sildenafil Citrate, but it's also extremely important to know if the product one is buying online is the right product and not just an imitation of the original. It is often difficult for a consumer to distinguish between legal and illegal websites. These websites are cleverly designed to defraud consumers and sell drugs that are not approved by the US FDA. The consumer also fails to understand the misuse of the word "Generic" as many medicines are available in generic forms. A few years ago Pfizer had launched a public awareness ad campaign against the sellers of "Generic Viagra" to help educate consumers about how to avoid illegitimate websites, safely purchase genuine Viagra online and help minimize selling of cheap Generic Viagra. A branded drug is marketed under a specific trade name by a pharmaceutical manufacturer. In most cases branded drugs are still under patent protection meaning the manufacturer is the sole source for the product but in many countries around the world this is not the case and a generic alternative is readily available. Ideally, a generic drug is made with the same active ingredients in the same dosage form as the branded drug. The generic drug is therapeutically equivalent to the brand name drug but is sold under its chemical or generic name. The FDA requires all generic manufacturers to inform them about the compositions which should be equivalent to the branded drug and have the same medical effects as the branded drug. Generic drugs come cheap than the branded ones. Generic manufactures spend less money on development and promotion compared to the expenditure incurred in research, development and marketing a new drug. Therefore, it is easier for likes of Generic Viagra manufacturers to sell Viagra cheap than the branded one online. But it is extremely difficult to access if these online Generic Viagra drugs are manufactured in unregulated factories and compromising on the quality of the drugs. It is advisable that problems like Erectile Dysfunction should be treated under doctor's supervision as reasons for ED could be many. Buying Generic Viagra online is strongly not recommended and an online diagnosis should be completely avoided as it is important to tell your doctor face to face the problem and have a written subscription for the same. Do avoid using websites which do not provide address, country code, as many countries do not share the same stringent rules for pharmaceutical manufacturing as applied in the US. The drugs may contain dangerous additives or you may even lose out on money by not receiving the order at all or if order received may not have the same effect. Buy Viagra online only from VIPPS certified pharmacies. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
