Questions

Is a Jan Aushadhi medicine a generic medicine?
Yes. It is named by its salts, not a brand. Same salts, same strength, same form as the brand.
Is it really the same medicine?
Same salts, same strength, same form. Only the coating or the colour can differ.
Why did my doctor not write this name?
Doctors mostly write the brands they are shown. Ask if the Jan Aushadhi one will do.
Can the chemist refuse?
A private chemist sells what they choose. A Jan Aushadhi Kendra is where it reliably is.
What is the catch?
Not every medicine has one, and a Kendra may not be near you. When we have no match, we say so.
