Biologics
Biological products, or simply "biologics", are medicines isolated from various natural sources or living organisms by means of biotechnology or other cutting-edge technologies.
Biosimilars
Biosimilar is a follow on medicine of an existing biologic whose patent has expired. It is like a generic drug on a patent-expired chemical drug. Biosimilars have virtually the same efficacy as biologics. Like generics, biosimilars give affordable access to critical life-saving drugs.
