Articles > Word of Caution - Counterfeit and Poor Quality Generics



 

Since the introduction of the popular drugs Propecia and Proscar, many sites and companies have sprung up around the world trying to compete in this multi-billion dollar market for hair loss products and solutions. As with any other product, the allure of making easy money has attracted many fraudulent businesses that peddle in fake generics or outright bogus products claiming to be the same as their name brand counterparts, but in reality absolute worthless junk drugs or poorly made generics.

Many websites exacerbate the problem buy using deceptive practices on their sites where they show a name brand Propecia or Proscar tablet, or package, but then they actually dispense an undeclared generic drug without providing so much as a word about who manufactures the drug nor any supporting material as to the quality assurance level of the company.

As far as countries or regions of the globe are concerned, one of the largest suppliers for sub standard generic and counterfeit medication is India. While some companies exist in India do manufacture legitimate products, many do not. Worse, still, even products that appear to be manufactured by a legitimate laboratory in India can easily be comprimised and counterfeited due to poor enforcement of the prescription drug market in India. To learn more about the counterfeit drug problem in India, see "Counterfeit Drugs Problems and Solutions for the Indian Pharmaceutical Industry" written by Magnar Løken d.y. and Avi Chaudhuri, PhD.

Beyond India, there are yet other countries were the counterfeit drug problem is exploding. More so than ever, it is imperative that prescription drug consumers inform themelves properly and carefully before purchasing medicines online. The old saying hold more true and pertinent as time goes on, "let the buyer beware." Here are a few precautions you should take before buying any prescription medication online.

Check out the company selling the product. There are two very simple things you can do to review a company or website where you plan to buy medication online. First, do a search on a major search engine for the company or website name. There are many useful websites now-a-days where consumers can report problems with online companies. If a company has repeatedly engaged in deceptive or fraudulent practices they are likely to appear on fraud and scam warning sites and consumer reviews. Second, visit whois.com to look up a website's registration information. Here you can quickly see how long a site has been registered, the company name and location who registered it, and contact information. If the site is brand new or the registration results are hidden from public view, beware of these sites. Check for sites that have been in business for a long time, using the same website name. These sites are obviously established and serving their customers well to be able to remain in business for a long period of time.

Know the specifics on the product you are purchasing. If the site you visit does not even do you the courtesy of telling you who manufactures the product they are selling or try to make it like like you are getting a name brand, but the prices are just too good to be true, stay away. Such sites are trying to bait and switch you to make you believe you are getting a name brand product, when in fact they are selling a cheap generic. If the website cannot even be honest and upfront about what product they are actually selling, can you really trust that even though you realize it is a generic, that it is a quality generic? See the article above about counterfeit drugs in India before you answer this question.

If a site is offering a generic, check out who manufactures it. Is the laboratory established? Does it operate in a country with lax regulations and controls, or in a country with strict government regulations and international quality and safety controls? Does the manufacturer have a valid and professional consumer website that you can refer to? Is the medication packaging properly sealed and marked? These are all things the well informed consumer confirms first before trusting a product and website.

Quality assurance and guarantees. Before ordering any medicines on the Internet, check that the site offering the products actually stand by their products and services. Does the company offer a satisfaction guarantee for the products they sell? Do they offer detailed information about the product they offer? As with any other purchase on the Internet, when in doubt ask first. If you have any question or concerns about any products, ask first before buying.

In conclusion, your hair loss situation and more importantly your health in general are of the greatest import to you. Don't risk losing more hair or worse endagering your health to cut a few corners or save a few bucks. Know what you are putting in your body so that you can have confidence that you are consuming the safest, most effective medication you can.
