CARACO PHARMACEUTICAL LABS

CARACO PHARMACEUTICAL is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing generic drugs for the ethical (prescription) and over-the-counter(non-prescription) markets. A generic drug is a pharmaceutical product which is the chemical and therapeutic equivalent of a brand-name drug as to which the patent and/or market exclusivity has expired. Generics are well accepted for substitution of brand products as they sell at a discount to the branded product's price and for their equivalence in quality and bioavailability.
