Explanation:
Strictly speaking, rinnakkaisvalmiste and generic product/drug may not have exactly the same meaning, but practically they have.
Rinnakkaisvalmiste is in almost 100 % of cases the same as generic product/drug = cheaper non-brand as opposed to expensive brand product/drug.
When it comes to e.g. cars, rinnakkaismalli could mean just parallel model.
