Maybe you've all seen it, but for thos that havent:
In pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and a generic
name.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol also has the generic name of
acetominophen.
Aleve is called naproxen.
Amoxil is also 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, mydixadud, dixafix
and,of course, ibepokin.
