Topic awaiting preservation: medical journal update (Page 1 of 1)

In pharmacology, all drugs have a generic name. Tylenol is acetaminophen, Aleve is naproxen, Amoxil is amoxicillin Advil or Nurofen is Ibuprofen, etc

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra and announced that it has settled on Mycoxafailin.

Also considered were Mycoxafloppin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixadud and Alimpdixafixit.

So?

Well, my preferred medicine for headaches is "mucato de isometepteno" (in Portuguese), prohibited here in the USA but sold over-the-counter in Brazil. Go figure...

hehe, think I've seen or heard it before though.
"Alimpdixafixit."
