Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Ziprax 50 Dry Sy. The medicine inside is the same — the brand name, manufacturer and price are what differ.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
