Viagra's New Name
In pharmacology, all drugs have two names: a trade name and a generic one.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol also has the generic name acetaminophen. Aleve is also called naproxen. Amoxil is also called amoxicillin, and Advil has the generic name 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 ibepokin.
