Sildenafil citrate is sold under many different trade names throughout the world. Many versions are produced in India due to the lenient patent laws in their county. Here are some of the trade names of this drug:
Viagra
The most popular version worldwide is Viagra developed and marketed by the pharmaceutical company Pfizer for erectile dysfunction. Viagra is approved by the FDA in the United States. The worldwide patents of Pfizer on sildenafil citrate will expire in 2011-2013. Currently, there is no generic version offered for sale in the United States due to Pfizer’s patents.
Kamagra
This is another version of sildenafil citrate made by the company Ajanta Pharma Ltd., based out of India. Under the patent laws of India, Indian companies can make drugs that are patented by other companies as long as they use a different process to make it than the original.
Alsigra
This is another Indian version of sildenafil citrate manufactured by the company Alembic. They claim to have the highest quality standards in their manufacturing processes. Like Viagra, it is specifically promoted as a treatment for erectile dysfunction.
Caverta
This is another version of sildenafil citrate manufactured by India’s largest pharmaceutical company, Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited.
