In fact, the Indian government's support for generic drugs is also caused by India's national conditions. Because India has a population of more than one billion, the number of poor people in India is still very large. And these poor people can't buy those expensive finished drugs after they get sick. Even after taking the finished medicine for a period of time, these ordinary people will drag down the whole family because of the high cost. Therefore, this decision of the Indian government is also a helpless move, because if it is not done, there will definitely be serious chaos in Indian society. This will also lead to serious dissatisfaction of the poor in India with the Indian government.
Of course, it is not unreasonable for international pharmaceutical companies to strongly oppose this move by the Indian government. Because the expensive finished drug itself needs to spend a lot of time and money, and even the risk of failure in this process is very high, international pharmaceutical companies often have to bear very big risks when developing a finished drug. This is why international pharmaceutical companies will apply for patents when developing a finished drug, because patents are a means to ensure that international pharmaceutical companies can recover their costs and make profits. However, this move by the Indian government is undoubtedly a huge loss for international pharmaceutical companies.
Of course, this move by the Indian government has indeed saved many poor people. Therefore, it cannot be simply said that the Indian government is morally right or wrong, but the Indian government's generic drug technology has reached an excellent level through this period of development.
