In pharmacology, all drugs have two names - a trade name and a generic name. For example, the trade name Tylenol(r) is acetaminophen. Aleve(r) is known as naproxen, Amoxil(r) is amoxicillin, and Advil(r) is ibuprophen.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra(r). After consideration 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(r) will soon be available in liquid form and will be marketed by Pepsi(r) 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.
