What does it mean for a drug to be pharmaceutically equivalent?

  1. A drug that requires different administration routes

  2. A drug that contains a different amount of active ingredient

  3. A drug that contains the same amount of active ingredient in the same dosage form and meets the same USP-NF compendial standards

  4. A drug with a different strength and therapeutic effect

The correct answer is: A drug that requires different administration routes

The correct answer is not A. Pharmaceutically equivalent drugs are defined as drugs that contain the same amount of active ingredient in the same dosage form and meet the same USP-NF compendial standards. This ensures that the drugs are essentially the same in terms of active ingredients, strength, quality, and performance characteristics. Pharmaceutically equivalent drugs may be manufactured by different companies but are considered interchangeable from a therapeutic standpoint.
