Sumario:Introduction: The medical education receive is critical to their professional future. Misconceptions about generic drugs can negatively influence your prescription. Objective: Identify the perception and use of generic drugs in trained physicians. Methods: Quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study carry out in medical students at a public university in southeastern Mexico. The study population consisted of a purified sample of 522 students enrolled during the February-June 2020 school year, who by open call filled out a Likert scale form (Google Forms). Results: Students' appreciation of a patent drug is superior, taking into account greater reliability in cases of seriousness. Generic drugs are seen as of poor quality and it is believed that those on the market are pirates or illegal copies. Conclusions: The results suggest that trained physicians have a negative perception of Generic Pharmaceutical Specialties, considering them less effective and of dubious quality. Despite this consideration, generics are often used in mild conditions and refer good results.
