[Title] => New brand of felodipine ‘bioequivalent’
[Summary] => For patients‚ the more expensive the medicine, the better is the quality. But with the introduction of pharmacoeconomics, this kind of thinking is being corrected.
One of the main concepts of pharmacoeconomics is to provide affordable, yet bioequivalent drugs. Dr. Esperanza Cabral, president of the Philippine Society of Hypertension, provided an explanation on bioequivalence among drugs, saying price has really nothing to do with a medicine’s effectiveness.

[Title] => Making affordable healthcare happen
[Summary] => Affordable healthcare has become a thing of the past. Medical services are now a major family expense, costing hundreds and thousands of pesos each month.
Many find even basic healthcare costs and routine prescription medicines out of financial reach. A growing number of families must choose between groceries or medicines, and many decide to take the gamble, choosing the former over the latter. They would rather forego the medication than let the family go hungry.

[Title] => Pharmaco-economics: Making healthcare affordable
[Summary] => With the increased cost of medicines, patients have now grown wiser. Even those who can well-afford expensive drugs from multinational companies are asking their doctors for more reasonably priced products that are equally effective as the more expensive brands. This is the science of pharmaco-economics.
