In cases in which the patent on a specific pharmaceutical product expires and drug manufacturers produce generic versions of the original branded product, the generic version of the drug (which is theorized to be identical to the product manufactured by a different firm) is dispensed, even though the original product is prescribed. Some managed care organizations and Medicaid programs mandate generic substitution because of the generally lower cost of generic products. There are state and federal regulations regarding generic substitutions.

DUR

Drug Utilization Review (DUR). A system of drug use review that can detect potential adverse drug interactions, drug-pregnancy conflicts, therapeutic duplication, drug-age conflicts, and so on. There are three forms of DUR: prospective (before dispensing), concurrent (at the time of prescription dispensing), and retrospective (after the therapy has been completed). Appropriate use of an integrated DUR program can curb drug misuse and abuse and monitor quality of care. DUR can reduce hospitalization and other costs related to inappropriate drug use.
