ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



a. Brand name ma



b. Code name ma



c. Generic name ma



d. Trade name ma




ANS: C m a



Before any drug is marketed, it is given a generic name that becomes the “official” name of the dru
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



g. Each drug is assigned only one generic name selected by the U.S. Adopted Name Council, and t
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



he name is not capitalized. The brand name is equivalent to the trade name and is capitalized. Altho
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



ugh the brand name is technically the name of the company marketing the product, this term is often
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



used interchangeably with the trade name. The code name is the initial term used within a pharmac
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



eutical company to refer to a drug while it is undergoing investigation and is often a combination of
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma



capital letters and numbers, the letters representing an abbreviation of the company name.

Each drug is assigned only one generic name (e.g., ibuprofen). It is selected by the U.S. Adopted N

ame Council. The generic name is not selected by the FDA or the Federal Patent Office. The pharm
