Well, which brand of Collagen and Tiffy are better?

In principle, a drug that has the same active ingredient and the same amount of medication has the same therapeutic effect, even on different brands. Because it is produced using the same standard But there are times when a patient comes to a doctor or pharmacist and says, ” I have taken both drugs, but feel that this drug is more drowsy, this drug is stronger, etc. ” The reason for this may be due to the drug manufacturing process. Of each company that could affect the amount of the drug But let me explain briefly

Usually when the drug is produced He will mix several kilograms of drugs at a time. Then come hammered into a thousand tablets at a time, then the tablets are weighed to find the average per tablet to achieve the specified weight. Which may cause the drug dosage to be inaccurate But the pharmaceutical production standard stipulates that Tolerances must not exceed plus minus 10% to be considered as standard.

Assume that Drug Company A has a tolerance for the drug. Dosage not more than 5% Chlorpheniramine has a dosage of 1.9-2.1 mg per tablet while Pharmaceutical Company B has a dosage tolerance not more than 10%. Each tablet 1.8-2.2 mg, which when viewed from the drug dosage will differ slightly, only a decimal point. This resulted in a slight difference in the therapeutic effects and side effects. And most of the pharmaceutical factories in Thailand will already meet the GMP standard for every factory. Consumers can therefore be confident in the pharmaceutical products that are manufactured in the country that are of certain standards.
