- Definition
- An originator brand is generally the product that was first authorized world wide for marketing (normally as a patented product) on the basis of the documentation of its efficacy, safety and quality, according to requirements at the time of authorization: e.g. Valium. The originator product always has a brand name; this name may, however, vary across countries. Some substances (e.g. prednisolone, izoniazid) are so old that no originator can be identified and the patent was probably never claimed.
