Abstract
This review highlights general toxicology concerns caused by formulation differences between generic and innovator drugs. It underscores the importance of a scientific, clinically oriented, evidence-based comparative safety evaluation procedure for generic drugs and discusses representative case studies from a pharmacology-toxicology perspective. For consideration by generic drug industry stakeholders, this article provides an overview of comparative risk assessments for generic drug products.
