Important Information About This Directory

Safety information

  • A molecule class groups molecules that act in a similar way. It does not mean the molecules in it are interchangeable.
  • Prescription status shown on each card is for India. A molecule sold over the counter here may be prescription-only elsewhere, and the reverse.
  • The brand count is what PharmEasy currently lists. It is not a statement about which brand suits you.
  • This directory is information, not a recommendation. Any change to a prescribed molecule is a decision for your doctor or pharmacist.
  • Combination packs contain more than one molecule. Check the pack against your prescription rather than against a brand name you remember.

How to Browse Molecules by Class

    Start from the class

    pick the class your prescription or symptom belongs to, or type a condition into the search box above.

  2. 2

    Read the molecule card

    each card names the sub-family the molecule belongs to, what it is used for, and whether it needs a prescription.

  3. 3

    Use the filters

    narrow a class by sub-family or by prescription status when you are comparing options within a group.

  4. 4

    Open the brands

    View medicines takes you to the brands PharmEasy lists for that molecule, with current prices and availability.

Why Molecules in the Same Class Differ

Molecules grouped in one class share a broad mechanism, but that is where the similarity ends. Two molecules in the same class can differ in how long they act, how they are given, who they suit and what they interact with: which is why a prescriber picks one specifically.

Sub-family
A different group within the same class
Duration of action
Once daily, or three times a day
Route
Oral, topical, inhaled or injected
Suitability
Age, pregnancy, kidney and liver function
Prescription requirement
Some are available only against a valid prescription
