In pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and a generic name.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol has a generic name of acetaminophen.
Aleve is also called naproxen. Amoxil is called amoxicillin, and Advil is also called ibuprofen. The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of mycoxafloppin. Also considered were mycoxafailin, mydixadrupin, mydixarizin, mydixadud, dixafix, and of course ibepokin. |
