[QUOTE="kiran6680, post: 2488278, member: 91963"] I don't think the reason anyone asks to avoid generic medicines is that they won't work. The risk is of contamination - often Indian medicines tested abroad, whether in advanced countries or even shitholes like Nepal, don't come clean. Heavy metals, and other unsavoury stuff were found. It is conceivable that in India we get the same contaminants but testers are bribed to shut up. So regulations can't be trusted to save us. So only brands can be trusted, if anything. I'm not sure if any brands are to be trusted. Pfizer itself has a huge plant in Vizag, where they might not be following all the safety protocols they follow in advanced countries. But in absence of strong regulatory oversight, we can't blame people developing blind trust in certain brands. Any insight as to actual trustworthiness of a brand will be very helpful. [/QUOTE]
