Subject: Brand Name Drugs
In Pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and
generic name.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol also has a generic
name o f Acetaminophen. Aleve is also 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, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of
course, Ibepokin.
Pfizer Corp announced 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. 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, and it 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 name of:
MOUNT&DO.
Thought for the day: There is more money being spent on
breast implants and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's
research. This means that by 2040, there should be a large
elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and
absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.
