Generics can provide a veterinary practice with options for its client base.
The conversation on generics and premier brands doesn’t have to be an either/or debate. Generics and premier brands can co-exist within the same practice, offering pet owners their preference of brand familiarity or cost-conscious purchases.
Brands still represent the majority of what is sold in a practice, and veterinarians love the advertising and marketing the brands do to create demand. There’s an opportunity for the veterinarian with generic medications to be competitive in the marketplace and have a mix where they can offer both. They can analyze their own customer base to figure out who might prefer which, generic vs. a premier brand.
HUMAN VS. ANIMAL HEALTH
In human health, the generics are driven largely by third party pay activities, meaning insurance companies. In animal health, there aren’t insurance companies saying you’ve got to give the least expensive treatment that is viable for a particular scenario that will treat, cure, or prevent something. The generic battles are pretty easy for the generic manufacturers on the human side. It’s all about price and volume. It’s not driven by the manufacturer – it’s driven by the insurance companies and the pharmacies.
In human health, insurance forces the issue, with generics taking nearly 100% of the pioneer’s market share in year one. Generics will drive down the prices via contract pricing with insurance companies, and when patients go to get a script filled it will be filled with a generic unless you force the issue and are willing to pay a lot more for the drug out-of-pocket.
In animal health, pioneer brands can continue to thrive or at least survive in most cases for years after generics launch. There is no insurance reimbursement dictating, and veterinarians are slow to change. A lot of the growth we see is really not from stealing share from a pioneer brand, it comes from naïve users that are moving up from less effective meds and can afford a Rx product at the lower price point. There are many DVMs that still have a bias against generics. Some buy into the perception that animal health generics may have less quality and may be less effective than pioneer brands. Human physicians understand most generics are made in the same regulated suites as the pioneer brands in there is not a clinical difference.
Veterinary medicine is starting to see pressure from the internet, which is bringing more awareness to the lesser-priced, equal-medication Rxs. By equal, it’s got to have the same active ingredient, the same milligram strength, dosage, administration, efficacy – all those things need to be on par with whichever premier drug that they’re representing as a generic. But we don’t have a major influence that’s pushing generic.
ANIMAL HEALTH GENERICS STRATEGIES
Generics can be a win-win for both the vet clinic and clients for several reasons. Vet clinics can charge clients less for their meds while making more margin dollars. More clients can now afford drugs that may have to be given every day for the rest of their pet’s lives. Those dollars can add up. Clients on fixed incomes may have made tough decisions that did not benefit their pets in the past, that can now afford their meds.
Another factor to consider is that generics can help keep the dollars in the veterinary clinic. Clients can easily shop and learn that a generic form of a pioneer drug is available on online pharmacies. If a veterinarian does not offer the less expensive generic form, their client may buy the drug the first time it is prescribed, but they’ll lose it to an online retailer the next 100 times they get a refill.
A small veterinary clinic in an affluent metropolitan area might be a prime target for premier. A mixed animal practice in a more rural area that serves large animal clients as well as companion with a much higher volume of work might be more in tune with generics. That said, assuming what your client really wants or is willing to pay can mean missed opportunities either way.
Benefits of veterinarians offering generics to owners
Benefits for veterinary clinics that offer generics to clients:
- FDA approved. Abbreviated New Animal Drug Application (ANADA) products, referred to as “generic,” have the benefit of being FDA approved, have proven the same bioequivalence and cGMP manufacturing standards of the pioneer product, but without the higher price tag. Many FDA manufacturing facilities have both “generic” and “pioneer” products produced on the same line. Both have the exact same requirements by the FDA.
- Owner compliance. A generic could make the difference between whether an animal owner can comply with a treatment option or not. This could be due to the financial burden the more expensive pioneer products have versus using a lower cost generic.
- Straightforward pricing. From the veterinarians’ standpoint, many prefer the straightforward/upfront generics pricing without the hassle of complicated rebate programs and backend money from some pioneer companies and products.
- Food animal industry. For food animal veterinarians it becomes an economic decision as their customers are trying to make a living producing pigs, cattle, or poultry. Generics that have entered the market have lowered the customer price by as much as 50%.
- Readily accepted and expected. Just as in human medicine where generics are readily accepted by the consumer, so too are generics accepted in animal medicine. The lower price points are accepted by animal owners, and all veterinarians need to be prepared to offer generics as an alternative or risk their customer going somewhere else for services.
- Financial. Generics provide an alternative to higher priced pioneer products to animal owners that may have financial limitations and otherwise might not be able to provide the proper medical and treatment care due to limited financial means.
- Competition is good. Generics provide a level of competition and options for both the veterinarian and their customers.
- Multiple sources. With supply chain issues occurring more frequently, it can negatively affect product availability, ensuring generic products are inventoried provides more supplier alternatives.
- Availability. In some cases, the pioneer manufacturer does not sell products through all distribution channels, so an opportunity may arise with generics.
- Inventory is the #2 biggest clinic cost. On average, next to payroll, inventory costs account for the #2 largest piece of the 'expenses pie'. Offering generics can contribute help with decreasing overall Inventory costs and Increasing margins on that Inventory.
- Options. When being offered 2 choices, a client is more likely to choose 1 option rather than declining altogether.

The Bimeda Story
Bimeda – Driving Excellence in Animal Health For 60 Years!
For 60 years, Bimeda colleagues have been driven by a passion for providing science-driven solutions to optimise the health and wellbeing of animals. If your next career move sees you join Bimeda, you’ll be part of a global network of over colleagues who benefit from 6 decades’ of expertise in animal health, and who are committed to working together to find ever-better ways to exceed the expectations of our customers, as we develop new ways to enhance animal health, welfare and productivity.
But how did we get here? Let’s take a walk down memory lane and look at how Bimeda’s unwavering commitment to animal health has seen us grow from a small Irish enterprise, to a leading global player in the animal health industry.
What started out in 1960 as a truly Irish enterprise, has grown over the course of six decades to become a leading global innovator, manufacturer and marketer of veterinary pharmaceuticals and animal health products.
In The Beginning…..
The original premises of Bimeda Chemicals Ltd in Phibsboro, DublinBimeda Chemicals Limited was founded on 22nd April 1960, when a group of Irish veterinary surgeons set up a company to supply Irish veterinarians with quality veterinary products. The original company motto was ‘For And By The Profession’. As the company founders were themselves veterinarians, they had unrivalled knowledge of the needs and wants of their customer base and were able to develop a highly sought product portfolio.
1963 Advertisement from the Journal of The Veterinary Medical Association of IrelandFrom the original premises in Phibsboro, Dublin, Bimeda Chemicals Ltd manufactured a range of veterinary remedies and also distributed a variety of third party products. As the 1963 advertisement from the Journal of The Veterinary Medical Association of Ireland shows, within just a few years Bimeda had a broad and exciting portfolio of products.
Bimeda quickly gained a reputation for both quality and reliability, and successfully drove awareness of the company’s product range through regular, innovative advertising campaigns. Bimeda’s passion for marketing continues to this day and is supported by our global network of marketing colleagues.
1973 - The Bimeda Acquisition and Expansion into the UK
In 1973 Bimeda Chemicals Limited was acquired by the current Irish owners. The family already owned Osmond & Sons (Dublin) Limited and went on to acquire Constant Chemicals Ltd in 1975. These three companies were subsequently brought together in a new location in Tallaght, Dublin. The new Tallaght facility served for many years as a multi-purpose production and warehousing unit; producing injectables, intramammaries, oral solutions, topicals and hygiene products. By this time, Bimeda had also established itself in the UK market, with a distribution base in Liverpool and a reputation for high quality products.
Expansion into Africa
With Bimeda now firmly established in both Ireland and the UK, ambitions moved towards expansion. The export business became a key strategic focus, with the East African market becoming particularly important.
Despite the challenges of both travel and communication at the time, Bimeda thrived; achieving rapid success in East Africa which has been sustained over many decades. Today Bimeda’s AMEA (Africa, Middle East and Asia) business has a physical presence in Kenya, Zambia, Uganda, Tanzania and China, with an export division which serves the entire AMEA region.
The 1990s - Coming To North America
Throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s Bimeda continued to grow, with a strong network of distributor and contract manufacture partners helping Bimeda products to reach veterinarians and farmers all over Europe and Africa.
However, the company had ambitions beyond the European and AMEA regions and in 1991, Bimeda commenced distributing products in the USA. In 1997, an acquisition followed, giving Bimeda its first permanent base in North America. A period of rapid expansion followed, and between 1997 and 2008, Bimeda undertook 5 key acquisitions in the USA, Canada and Mexico, creating a strong R&D, manufacturing and commercial presence throughout the North American continent.
A Decade of Global Acquisitions
2010 marked the start of a new decade and a period of rapid expansion driven by both organic growth and an ambitious acquisition strategy.
Between 2010 and 2019 Bimeda acquired medicinal, nutritional, diagnostics and vaccine businesses in Kenya, Brazil, the UK, US and France, as well as acquiring the veterinary medicine portfolio of Grupo Unipharm in Central America.

In 2021, Bimeda was pleased to enter the aquaculture sector, with the acquisition of AquaTactics Fish Health, in the USA. The same year, Bimeda established a new greenfield organisation in Denmark, Bimeda Nordic Aps. From early 2022 Bimeda Nordic commenced supply of our broad range of veterinary pharmaceuticals and animal health products to the Nordic region.
In 2022 Bimeda acquired Afrivet Limited in South Africa, resulting in Bimeda having the largest footprint of any animal health company in Africa.
In 2023 Bimeda made a substantial philanthropic donation to the UCD Foundation in Ireland. This donation was used to help fund the UCD Bimeda Herd Health Hub and AgTechUD Innovation Centre at UCD Lyons Farm in county Kildare, Ireland.
