Naming of drugs & other substances (namely VIAGRA)

[SeattleCharger]

            In Pharmacology, all drugs have two names. A trade name, and a generic

name. For example, the trade name of Tylenol is acetaminophen. Aleve is

known as naproxen. Amoxil is amoxicillin, and Advil is ibuprofen.

            The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful

consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced it

has settled on the generic name of mycoxafloppin.

Also considered were mycoxafailin, mydixadrupin, mydixarizen,

mydixadud, dixafix, and ibepokin.

          Pfizer Corp. is making an announcement today that Viagra will soon be

available in liquid form and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power

beverage suitable for use as a mixer. Pepsi's proposed ad campaign claims

it will now be possible for a man to literally pour himself a stiff one.

          Obviously we can no longer call this a soft drink. This gives new

meaning to the names of cocktails, highballs, and just a good old fashioned

stiff drink.
 
           Pepsi will market the new concoction by the trade name of Mount & Do.
