Non availability, shortage or cost of medicine. Not an issue.

In a developing country like Pakistan we mostly encounter with the problems which are just "NO PROBLEM'' in developed countries. Among such issues health and fitness are the core ones. We are surrounded by the diseases i.e, Cardiac, diabetic, cancerous, prostatic etc etc. All these require medicines to cure or manage the diseases. Sometimes these medicines showed up with some irritative situations.
Non availability or shortage of specific medicine always remains an important issue. Along with this issue another important issue is the high prices of medicines which are  touching the sky.
But now shortage or non availability and prices are not issues any more. We will tell you how you can avoid shortage and high prices of medicines.
First come to shortage of medicine. Let's take an example which I usually quote is milk. We all know that there are many companies offering their milk in market with different names. There are just difference of names but the composition is same which is surely milk. For instance, olpar, Tarang, Milk pack etc are the brand names whereas they all contain milk.
Same is the case with medicines. There are hundreds of brands with same composition. All you have to identify is the composition which is always mentioned below the brand name. (See image for clear understanding). In case of shortage of the specific brand, simply ask the pharmacist to give you a substitute or other brand in the same composition.

Now comes about the price. There are always two type of brands. "Research'' brand and "me too'' brands. Research brands are the ones that are invented after conducting a long research. Due to which research brands usually come up with high prices. On the other hand me too brands comes in the market after getting marketing rights from the research brands and so available in cheap prices comparatively.
Me too brands from different companies comes with different prices. You can simply ask the pharmacist for the cheap brand in the desired composition.
Second you can easily search out the distribution setup of the desired brand through manufacturing company name (available on the product pack). You will get extra discount from distribution setup.

Third you can cut short the price by purchasing the high potency. For example you have been prescribed a tablet with 250mg strength and same tablet is available in 500 mg also. Ask for 500mg because higher potency comes with lower price as compared to two tablets of 250mg. But the difference may not be so high to give you extra benefit.

Hopefully you will not be worried in future due to shortage or high priced medicines.
