Brief Answer:
no they are not exactly same but similar action

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.


Both placida and dotin 50 are different molecules but act on similar symptoms.
I agree with your physician that it is a good replacement of placida for control of your symptoms.

Placida has been banned in XXXXXXX because of its addictive properties that lead to dependence in many people including you.

So conclude although dotin is different but it is genuine replacement of placida for you.

I hope I am able to address your concerns.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me. I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks and regards.
