GENERIC ZOCOR

My doctor/pharmacist says that there is no generic for Zocor. How can you have one?
Your doctor/pharmacist is correct. What we are selling is the Indian brand name version of Zocor sold in the Indian market and exported to many areas of the world including Asia, South America, Africa and the Middle East.

Who makes your Generic Zocor?
The Generic Zocor we sell is called Simcard and is made by Cipla.

What is the difference between the brand name Zocor I buy and the generic you are offering?
The only difference is the name of the product, the look of the pill, and of course the price is a lot lower. The brand name and generic are 100% chemically identical and the quality is identical as well.

Can you tell me about Cipla?
Cipla Pharmaceuticals develops, manufactures and markets finished products, active pharmaceutical ingredients and intermediates. Cipla's revenue in FY2003-04 was about $350 million U.S. Dollars. Cipla's plants have been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, the U.K. Medicines Control Agency, Australian TGA, South African SAMMDRA, Hungarian NIP, German PIC, WHO, Slovak SI and Brazilian ANVISA.

Why isn't Simcard sold in the U.S. or in my area of the world?
Zocor is made by and patented by Merck. Cipla is able to reproduce Zocor because Indian patent laws protect only the process, not the product. This means that if a company in India finds another way to make the same chemical, it is can legally produce it, but cannot commerically send it to the U.S. until Merck's patent expires. As a consumer, you can legally import Simcard as it is not for commercial use but for your personal use.
