4. Which type of drug name usually begins with a lowercase letter?
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


a. Brand name l0


b. Code name l0


c. Generic name l0


d. Trade name l0




ANS: C l 0


Before any drug is marketed, it is given a generic name that becomes the ―official‖ name of the drug.
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


Each drug is assigned only one generic name selected by the U.S. Adopted Name Council, and the na
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


me is not capitalized. The brand name is equivalent to the trade name and is capitalized. Although the
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


brand name is technically the name of the company marketing the product, this term is often used inte
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


rchangeably with the trade name. The code name is the initial term used within a pharmaceutical com
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


pany to refer to a drug while it is undergoing investigation and is often a combination of capital letter
l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0 l0


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