			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Generic drugs are going to be the next big thing to stop the AIDS epidemic from spreading throughout the world. Generic drugs will be a best option for the HIV patients who are not able to afford the expensive branded medicines. The quality of generic drugs is the same as the quality of the branded medications. Generic drugs are prepared with the same formulation used by the branded medications. Generic drugs contain the same active ingredient that is used in the branded drugs. Generic drugs in spite of the low prices produce the same effect and give the dual benefit to the patient by not only treating the disease but also saving his money.</p>
<p>A survey was conducted to know about the financial status of the AIDS patients. The survey was conducted in around 80 countries. It was observed through the survey that the large numbers of the AIDS patients were having an average income of 1 dollar a day. Because of the low income purchasing the drugs that are very expensive in price became an impossible task for these people. So, generic drugs can serve to be a very best method to provide the medication to these AIDS patients. If you will go check out the prices of the AIDS medication only in US, then you can get an idea that $1000 monthly is the expenditure done of the medications. This much amount of money not every man is able to spend on medicine. Hence, the outbreak of the generic drugs will surely help a large group of the HIV patients who were restraining themselves from the medicines because of the high costs.</p>
<p>The best thing about the generic drugs that are used for the HIV patients will be approved by the FDA, so that no question about their quality will arouse. The most important thing is that no medication is able to cure the AIDS completely, so there is no need for the HIV patients to spend a large amount of money on the medications. Generic drugs serve to be as an economical option because these medications are manufactured in the developing countries and thus are available at 60% to 70% lesser rates than the branded drugs. Generic drugs show the same effect like the branded drugs so there is no need of worry about the effectiveness of the drugs.</p>
<p>Generic drugs are very cheaper in comparison to the branded drugs and also beneficial even for the government agencies which sell generic drugs at very low costs. Some of the same medications sold in the US. are made as generics abroad and can be purchased for about $1. HIV inflection is an issue that is particularly important in the Palm Springs area, which boasts one of the largest gay populations per capita in the United States. Gay and bisexual men of all races account for the majority of those living with HIV. So it is very necessary to make the HIV patients aware about the option of the generic drugs so that they can opt for the generic drugs.</p>
<p>One important thing that the patients need to remember is to consult the doctor before using the generic drugs because he will be the best person to decide on the drugs. Once you get the permission from the doctor then you can certainly use them, this will save your money and enable you to buy more medications at low costs. This will certainly help in reducing the death rate that is increased due to the AIDS and these patients will be able to live for the more years.</p>
