Generic Viagra
In pharmacology, all drugs have two names - a trade name and a generic name.
For example, the trade name Tylenol® is acetaminophen. Aleve® is known as naproxen, Amoxil® is amoxicillin, and Advil® is ibuprophen.
The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra®. Afterconsideration by a team of experts, it recently announced it has settled on the generic name of mycoxafloppin.
Also considered were mycoxafailin, mydixadrupin, mydixarizin, mydixadud, dixafix, and of course ibepokin.
Pfizer Corp. Is making an announcement 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. Pepsi’s proposed ad campaign claims 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. This additive gives new meaning to the names of cocktails and highballs. Pepsi will market the new formula by the name, Mount & Do.
The long term implications of drugs and medical procedures must be fully considered:
Over the past five years, Americans have spent more money on breast implants and Viagra® than was spent on Alzheimer’s research. It is believed that by the year 2030, there will be a large number of people wandering around with perky breasts and erections who can’t remember what to do with them.
[My wife forwarded this to me, and I couldn’t resist sharing it with you guys. Mods can move it to The Dive if necessary, but I don’t have access to do that.]
