Licensing seems to be the main reason behind such a move. Such drugs are termed as generic and are becoming popular with physicians all over the world.

These generic drugs are also cheap compared to their branded cousins. In some cases you save upto 80% when buying generic medications. A recent survey conducted on generic drugs showed that the low cost of manufacture is the reason behind low prices for the end consumer. This is achieved by shifting the manufacturing facility to a region that has cheap labour and the local governments facilitate setting up of industries by providing incentives in tax, power and other resources which form the basis of any manufacturing industry.
