Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
ProAir Digihaler is a type of rescue inhaler used for people with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It can be prescribed by a healthcare professional for rescue treatment for the exacerbation of bronchospasms.
Asthma and COPD are chronic health conditions that cause breathing trouble. Symptoms may include coughing, shortness of breath, and chest pain. They are serious conditions that can prevent a person from breathing appropriately.
Bronchospasm can sometimes be an emergency. Therefore, it is important for anyone with these conditions to carry a rescue inhaler.
