What exactly is a generic medicine?

A generic medicine has the identical active ingredient, strength, dosage form and route as the branded drug. Once the original patent expires, other approved manufacturers can produce the same molecule. The paracetamol in a costly brand is the same paracetamol in a far cheaper generic — same medicine, different label.

Why are they so much cheaper?

The branded company recovers the cost of research, trials and marketing through a higher price during its patent years. A generic maker skips that original spend — the molecule is already proven — so the same medicine sells for far less. You pay for the medicine, not the marketing.

Generics must prove bioequivalence — the same amount of drug reaching your bloodstream at the same rate — so they are expected to work the same way.

Generic Medicines We Stock

A wide everyday range — ask our pharmacist for the generic equivalent of any prescription.

Everyday Generics

Pain relief, fever, acidity, allergy, cough & cold generics.

Chronic-Care Generics

BP, diabetes, thyroid & cholesterol — big monthly savings.

Antibiotics & Rx

Prescription generics dispensed against a valid prescription.

Vitamins & Supplements

Generic multivitamins, calcium, iron & daily wellness.

How the savings add up

Generics matter most for medicines you take every single day. On a long-term prescription, choosing the generic can turn a heavy monthly bill into a small one — for the same active ingredient and the same effect.

The habit

Ask "Is there a generic for this?" every time a doctor writes a prescription.

The check

Our pharmacist matches the exact salt, strength and dose to a quality generic.

The result

Up to 40% off — and often much more on chronic-care medicines.

Actual savings vary by molecule and manufacturer. We'll show you the exact price and saving before you buy.

What is Jan Aushadhi — and how we fit in

Jan Aushadhi (the Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana) is a Government of India scheme that runs dedicated Janaushadhi Kendras selling quality generic medicines at low, government-fixed prices. It has made affordable generics far more visible across India.

To be clear: Scanda Enterprises is a private 24/7 pharmacy, not an official Jan Aushadhi Kendra. What we offer is the same goal through a private pharmacy — a wide range of CDSCO-approved generic medicines at up to 40% savings, with a pharmacist to guide you, open round the clock. If you specifically want the Jan Aushadhi range, we're happy to explain the scheme and point you to it.

How to buy a genuine generic

  1. Buy from a licensed pharmacy with a registered pharmacist.
  2. Check the pack for manufacturer name, batch number and mfg/expiry dates.
  3. Look for the salt (active ingredient) name printed clearly.
  4. Match the salt, strength and dose to your prescription.
  5. Ask the pharmacist to confirm the generic equals your branded drug.

Good to know

  • A cheaper price does not mean lower quality when it's CDSCO-approved.
  • Generics can look different (colour/shape) but contain the same medicine.
  • For chronic conditions, sticking to one trusted generic keeps things consistent.
