About Generic Medicine Finder

Generic Medicine Finder is a free tool built to help Indians save money on healthcare by finding affordable generic alternatives to expensive branded medicines.

Our Mission

In India, the same medicine with the same composition can cost 10-20 times more just because of a brand name. Most people don't know that a ₹15 Dolo 650 tablet has the exact same Paracetamol as a ₹5 generic version.

We built this tool to bridge that knowledge gap. Our mission is simple: help every Indian find affordable medicine alternatives and save money on healthcare.

What Are Generic Medicines?

Generic medicines contain the same active ingredients, same dosage, same strength, and same effectiveness as branded medicines. The only difference is the price. They are:

• Approved by the Indian government (CDSCO)
• Required to meet the same quality standards
• Used in government hospitals across India
• Recommended by WHO (World Health Organization)
• Priced lower because they don't have marketing costs
