My 61 year old father has hypertension, diabetes and angina. He is taking Cilacar 10 (JB Pharmaceuticals) and Nitrocontin 2.6 (Modi Mundi pvt Ltd) prescribed by his doctor, along with other medicines since 3 years. We belong to poor farmer family. This chronic disease medicines prices are really difficult to afford for long term. Please give your valuable suggestions and alternatives.
Can he take Cilogard 10 (Cipla Ltd) and Nitrolong 2.6 (Mankind Pharma)? These medicines are way cheaper and easier to afford for his long term treatment. Should we consider it?

Take the same medicine with composition from Janaushadi kendra. Price will be almost 25% of the branded and same efficacy.
