In response to the growing allegations of the pharmaceutical industry's
"Disease-Mongering" one blogger has suggested the following for Phizer
and the FDA.
"In pharmacology, most drugs have 2 names, a trade name and a generic
name. For example, the trade name Tylenol has the generic name
acetaminophen; Aleve is naproxen etc.
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, dixafix, and of
course, ibepokin.
Also, in a suprise move, Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra
will soon be available in liquid form that 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 "stiff drink."
Pepsi plans to market the new concoction under the trade name of
Mount&Do."
