[noun] [C]Generics are low-cost medical drugs that do not have trademarks.Brand-name prescription drugs can be copied as generics once their patents have expired.(esp. ANZ) A generic is also an item sold under the name of a particular group of shops, rather than under a well-known product name, and which is therefore usually cheaper.
