Why Doctors proscribe only branded drugs which are almost 10 times costlier than generic drugs. Both are same and gives same results ? Regards.

Hello there You raised a very pertinent & important question. According to the medical ethics, a doctor has to prescribe only generic medicine. In Homoeopathy, the medicines are always single entity. So there will not arise the question of branded name. For example, Arnica. It is a medicine prepared out of Arnica plant. There is no branded drug, as there is no alternative for individual homoeopathic remedy. Nice to see such kind of questions Regards
