What is the difference between generic and trade name regarding medications?

The generic name of a medication is its chemical name or the name assigned by the manufacturer, which is not trademarked and can be used by any company. In contrast, a trade name (or brand name) is a trademarked name given to the medication by the company that manufactures it, often designed to be more marketable. While both refer to the same active ingredient, the trade name may differ between manufacturers and can include specific formulations or delivery methods. Generic medications are typically less expensive than their trade-name counterparts.
