OTC Vet Meds Announced launch of Generic pet medicines for pets

Pet owners in America spent $25.45 billion on the pet supplies, over-the-counter pet medicines and in the vet care in 2010, according to survey conducted by Pet Products Association America. The yearly cost of taking care of a dog or cat in the U.S ranges between $800 and $900. With monthly tick and flea treatments costing as much as $12 to $14 per dose, there is no doubt that Pet medicines contribute for a huge portion of American pet care expenses. One can also not deny the fact that some pet medications are important part of a responsible pet ownership. Taking the cost factor and the importance of Pet medications, into consideration OTC Vet Meds has announced the launch of Generic pet medicines for pets.

“We are happy to enter in to the new era of affordable, convenient generic versions of the bestselling pet medications available to consumers, now consumers will be able to purchase the generic equivalents at lower price than the brand-name products at OTC Vet Meds”, said Mr.RavindraDasarwar CEO of OTC Vet Meds.

Now for the pet owners who are tired of paying the outrageous costs on the pets like dogs and cats generic alternative medicines prove to be the best option. “If the generic variants of pet medication works as well as the real meds than, I’ll surely go for the generic version to save on money” said one of the regular customers of OTC Vet Meds, whose family includes two dogs and a cat, in addition to her husband and two children.

A result of expiring patents of branded pet drugs, more and more generic alternatives of pet meds are finding their way into the veterinarian’s offices, many of the research experts believe that generics will account for half of all pet medications within a decade.

Generic equivalents of brand-name drugs have the same active ingredients as that available in the original products. For example DA Double Advantage for Dogs from OTC Vet Meds is the generic equivalent of K9 Advantix, which contains exactly the same ingredients as used in K9 Advantix for the prevention and treatment of ticks, fleas, mosquitoes, biting flies and lice on dogs and it costs almost half the rate of its original counterpart.

The clinical researchers reported saying that, generics have no proven side effects that are different from brand-names and are safe on the pets. However no drug in the market is allowed to sell unless the product meets necessary stringent safety, efficacy and manufacturing standards. If you see the facts, an estimated 50 percent of the generic drug production is by brand-name firms or their subsidiaries.
