What you will receive

Sumycin is the originator brand name, made by Pfizer. We use it here to identify the medicine only; we are not affiliated with Pfizer and do not ship the original Sumycin.

  • You receive a generic equivalent: the same active ingredient (Tetracycline) 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.
