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.
Rilutek (Riluzole) is a medication used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a disease that affects the nerves and muscles. It belongs to a group of drugs called benzothiazoles. Rilutek works by lowering the amount of glutamate in the brain, a substance that can cause damage to nerve cells in people with ALS. As a result, it may help people maintain better muscle control and live longer. Rilutek comes in tablet form and is used alongside other treatments to slow down the condition’s progression.
The usual dosage of Rilutek is 50 mg twice daily, approximately every twelve hours. It’s important to take the doses at regular times. Take Rilutek on an empty stomach, ideally one hour before or two hours after meals to improve absorption. Swallow the tablet whole, without chewing or crushing it. Always follow the instructions given by a healthcare provider and reach out to them if you have any questions about the dosage.
The active ingredient in Rilutek is Riluzole.
Avoid taking Rilutek if you have a history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to Riluzole or any ingredients in the medication.
In clinical trials for ALS, common side effects of Rilutek included weakness, nausea, and decreased lung function. Other side effects that some patients report include stomach pain, dizziness, a dry mouth, trouble sleeping, and vomiting. While most side effects are mild, a few individuals may decide to stop taking the medication due to nausea, stomach pain, constipation, or high liver enzyme levels.
Rilutek has sometimes been linked to liver problems, which can include sudden liver inflammation and yellowing of the skin and eyes. It can also cause problems with the kidneys and pancreas. There have been reports after the drug was released that it might lead to serious lung problems. If symptoms such as persistent nausea, jaundice, or breathing difficulties occur, contact a healthcare provider immediately.
