What you will receive
Aricept is the originator brand name, made by Eisai. We use it here to identify the medicine only; we are not affiliated with Eisai and do not ship the original Aricept.
- You receive a generic equivalent: the same active ingredient (Donepezil) at the same dose, mostly recognised Indian branded generics from vetted manufacturers.
- The exact brand supplied depends on what is in stock at the dispatching warehouse.
- A regulated generic matches the original ingredient for ingredient by legal standard.
