Consequently, there is a Goa Medical College, Bambolim, Goa 403202, flood of brand names to choose from. We conducted this study to analyse and sort out the multitudinous India brand names thronging the Indian market, and identified those that could create a possible confusion. Materials and Methods: Recent issues of drug formularies like Indian Drug Review, Drug Index, and Monthly Correspondence: Index of Medical Specialities-India were checked and all the brand names given were included. Some other Amit Garg, MD brand names that are available with the pharmacists but are not included in these indexes were also included E-mail: [email protected] in the study for analysis. Observations: Potentially confusing brand names were sorted out and categorised according to the severity of damage they can cause if misinterpreted by the pharmacist or the patient. Subgroups were made according to the brand name, the generic name, and the manufacturers of the drug. Conclusion: Several brand names are strikingly identical, similar looking (orthographic), or similar sounding (phonological). Preventing this possible confusion is not the work of any one person involved. We describe the Received : 09-08-04 role of prescribing doctors, dispensing pharmacists, consumer patients, and the manufacturing companies to Review completed : 30-09-04 prevent “wrong prescribing” due to similarities in brand names.

Sometimes these products are even coming from the same lab. In the pharmaceutical world, the generic version carries the same sort of stigma – the idea that it is less effective, and sometimes individuals believe that this version does more harm than it does good. However, if one were to look at the list of ingredients on a bottle of Tylenol and then a bottle of Kroger-brand Acetaminophen – one will find that both have the same active ingredient: acetaminophen.

To Our Stockholders 2006 was a challenging transitional year for Bristol-Myers Squibb. We experienced the significant negative impact of generic competition in our pharmaceutical business, and made the difficult decision to change leadership of the company.We also achieved preliminary settlement of an investigation of drug pricing, sales and marketing practices that began many years ago. At the same time, we were successful in launching several promising new products, expanding key businesses and advancing our robust pipeline—all in areas of serious unmet medical need. As a result, Bristol-Myers Squibb is now well positioned to begin growing sales and earnings, and to build shareholder value.

DOC REF 24002354 Clearance Application Public Version Part A: Summary of Application 1. Executive Summary This clearance application concerns the proposed acquisition by GlaxoSmithKline plc. (GSK) of Pfizer’s consumer healthcare business (Pfizer CH), resulting in the combination of the consumer health (CH) businesses of GSK (GSK CH) and Pfizer (Pfizer CH) into a new company under the majority ownership and control of GSK (the Combined CH Business), (the Proposed Transaction). GSK will have a majority controlling equity interest of 68% in the Combined CH Business and Pfizer will have a minority non-controlling equity interest of 32%. The Proposed Transaction involves a range of consumer health products. However, material competitive overlaps arise only in relation to over the counter (OTC) cold and flu treatments and OTC pain management products. Based on certain pharmaceutical categorisations, there are a small number of additional products for which an overlap could be said to exist, but where the products do not in any way compete. The lack of competitive overlap is described further in the market definition section. Cold and flu treatments (a) In the cold and flu treatments market the Proposed Transaction will combine in the Combined CH Business GSK’s Panadol Cold & Flu MAX, Coldrex1 and Otrivin products with Pfizer’s Dimetapp and Robitussin products.

There have been different methods to detect molecular structures such as Chromatography, Spectroscopy and Nuclear Magnet Resonance. A brief description of these methods is presented and how they are used. Then the new method is presented using an apparatus emitting low frequency electromagnetic signals.
