Question

What is the difference between a drug that is "generic" or "trade name"? And give an example.

Answer 1

Ans: Groups of medications that have similar actions often will have similar-sounding generic names, such as the antibiotic group. Amoxicillin and ampicillin are examples. If a generic medication is made by several different pharmaceutical companies, it is given a brand or trade name.

Answer 2

Difference between a generic drug and a trade name would be that the generic drug is the real name of the drug while the trade name are code names for the drugs
example: marijuana for generic and trade names for it can be pot, tree, zaazaa, leaf etc.
another example can be cocaine for the generic name and the trade name is snow
hope this helped
