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


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


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


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

xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
