🔴 1. The ₹5 Tablet You Buy for ₹100 Most medicines cost just ₹2–₹5 to manufacture. But you’re sold the same thing at ₹100+ — just because it has a brand name. ➡️ Dolo-650 costs ₹1.90 to make, sold for ₹30+. 🔴 2. Branded vs Generic: The Scam Both have the same chemical, same effect. But branded meds are 10x–20x costlier — and heavily marketed to doctors. ➡️ Generic Paracetamol = ₹2 | Crocin = ₹30+ But guess which one your doctor prescribes? 🔴 3. Doctors Get Incentives to Prescribe Brands Foreign trips in the name of “medical conferences” Expensive gifts, gadgets, even cash 💥 In 2022, Dolo’s manufacturer was exposed for spending ₹1,000 CR on doctor freebies. (Source: FMRAI PIL in Supreme Court) 🔴 4. Pharma Reps = Medical Influencers They don’t promote based on what’s best for patients — but what helps meet monthly targets. Behind every pen, sample, or gift — is a push to sell more, not heal more. 🔴 5. Chemists Also Play Along Retailers earn more on branded drugs. ➡️ That’s why many won’t even stock generics, even if you ask. 🔴 6. Generics Are Hidden from You Same drug. 90% cheaper. Available at Jan Aushadhi stores (Govt initiative) But most people don’t even know it exists — because there’s no profit in awareness. 🔴 7. Your Healthcare = Their Business Model You’re not a patient. You’re a customer. Your illness = their market. Healing is secondary. Selling is the goal. ⚠️ This isn’t rare. This is the norm. ✅ What can you do?
