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 of 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.
