What is a Generic Drug?
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Glucotrol xl Medicine Use and Interactions:
Glucotrol XL (Glipizide ER)
Glucotrol XL is an anti-diabetic medication (belonging to a class of medications: sulfonylurea-type) used to regulate and control high blood sugar alongside a proper workout and diet program. It is used in individuals with type 2 diabetes (non-insulin-reliant diabetes). It functions by releasing the body’s natural insulin.
Glipizide ER 5mg and Glipizide ER 10mg effectively control blood sugar and help prevent heart strokes, diseases, kidney problems, blindness, and blood circulation issues, as well as sexual activity problems such as impotence.
Glucotrol XL treats high blood sugar levels that are caused by a type of diabetes mellitus (sugar diabetes) known as type 2 diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, your body cannot work accurately to store surplus sugar and the sugar remnants in your bloodstream. Chronic high blood sugar may cause serious health issues in the future.
