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.
