	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: International Nonproprietary Name
		The chemical name specifies the molecular structure of the pharmaceutical and is used primarily by researchers.
		The name epinephrine, from Greek epi-, upon or close upon, and nephros, kidney (3), was given by Abel to a substance he isolated in 1897 from the adrenal gland in the form of the corresponding dibenzoyl derivative.
		However, ‘epinephrine’ was later chosen as the international nonproprietary name (INN) for this substance by the international panel of experts engaged in the international nomenclature program for pharmaceutical substances, started by the World Health Organization in 1959.

	US FDA Considerations Discussion by National Regulatory Authorities with WHO Discussion by National Regulatory ...
		The U.S. FDA’s concerns in today’s discussion are (a) that the INN not be used in ways that could jeopardize the health of patients, and (b) that we not unnecessarily institute changes that could jeopardize the public health benefits of the present INN system.
		In the event that granting the same INN name to similar drugs that are nonetheless pharmacologically distinct may lead to inappropriate substitutions, then it may be determined at a later date that changes to the INN policy are needed to ensure safe prescribing and dispensing of drug products including similar protein products throughout the world.
		The INN should not be used as a determinant of interchangeability.

		Nonproprietary names, also called generic or common names, are intended to be used as public property without restraint, i.e., nobody should own any rights on their usage.
		The INN for a substance belonging to a group of pharmacologically related substances shows the relationship by the use of a common stem.
		The registration of domain names has to be seen as rather distinct from the registration of trademarks or the selection of International Nonproprietary Names for pharmaceutical substances.

	generic drug. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		a drug sold or prescribed under the nonproprietary name of its active ingredients or under a generally descriptive name rather than under a brand or trade name.
		The name of the active ingredient is established by a government or international body, and is typically the U.S. Adopted Name, British Approved Name, or International Nonproprietary Name.
		Generic drugs must contain the same active ingredients that their brand name counterparts do and are tested to assure that they are therapeutically equivalent, but they may contain different inactive ingredients from those found in the brand name medications.

		Clearly, appropriate nonproprietary naming, classification, and trademark selection have the potential to significantly support the desired differentiation and positioning of the emerging new pharmaceutical.
		The chemical name specifies the molecular structure of the pharmaceutical and is used primarily by researchers.
		Thus, a wisely selected code name hinting clearly to its owner may positively influence the owner's image, especially if positive clinical research data on the coded compound are being presented at scientific meetings or published in international journals.

	Guidance for Industry: Drug Name Review: Look-alike Sound-alike (LA/SA) Health Product Names - NOTICE
		Common name: C.01.001.(1) of the Food and Drug Regulations states that a "common name" means, with reference to a drug, the name in English or French by which the drug is (a) commonly known and (b) designated in scientific or technical journals, other than the publications referred to in Schedule B to the Act.
		The USAN committee develops the names, taking into account practical considerations, such as the existence of trademarks, international harmonization of drug nomenclature, the development of new classes of drugs, and the fact that the intended uses of substances for which names are being selected may change.
		Related to similar brand names, the practise of using abbreviations or suffixes in brand names is discouraged as it is perceived to increase the chance of confusion and/or error.

	LEGAL AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS IN THE SELECTION OF A PHARMACEUTICAL PROPRIETARY NAME
		The labeling of a pharmaceutical brand name drug may be misleading if it includes a proprietary name that, because of similarity in spelling or pronunciation, may be confused with the proprietary name or the established name of a different drug or ingredient.
		The primary purpose of the Proprietary Name Review is to determine whether or not the proposed pharmaceutical brand name may be confusingly similar to other proprietary pharmaceutical brands and generic pharmaceutical names that have been recently approved or are already on the market.
		The proprietary name may be approved or rejected in the United States on the basis of healthcare brand name confusion while the opposite result can occur in the European Union countries, resulting in two different proprietary names for the same drug product.

		These three names—epinephrine, suprarenine, and adrenaline—may be referred to as ‘traditional’ or ‘trivial’ chemical names (4) in their origin.
		Of course the generic name epinephrine has nothing to do with a systematic (rational) chemical name, which has to be constructed observing the rules codified by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC).
		In this case ‘epinephrine’ is neither the former nor the latter—it is an INN.

	AMA (USAN) How to apply for a name
		Incorporating a stem into a trade name interferes with nomenclature agencies' ability to systematically create new nonproprietary names for other members of a class of drugs. Therefore, the USANC Secretariat may lodge objections to proposed trademarks that conflict with USANs/INNs, or that incorporate common stems in trademarks.
		Applicants should propose one to three nonproprietary names for the substance. ; The suggested name for the active moiety of a drug should be a single word. If you already have an INN, please supply that name.
		When considering an acceptable name the following criteria are constantly kept in mind by the USANC: usefulness to healthcare providers, patient safety, adherence to the nomenclature rules, absence of conflicts with existing names, suitability for use internationally, ease of pronunciation, and other factors. The USANC does not choose names based on specific marketing considerations.

		An International Nonproprietary Name (INN) is the official non-proprietary or generic name given to a pharmaceutical substance, as designated by the World Health Organization.
		The plethora of named proprietary preparations containing a given substance can lead to confusion about the identity of the active ingredient.
		A similar role is played in chemistry by IUPAC names, however these are less suited to common usage, being typically very long and unwieldy.

		(PEN) a shortened name for a drug or combination of drugs, used by pharmacists or practitioners when it may be impractical to use the full official term; when used for a combination of drugs, the term usually consists of the prefix co- plus an abbreviation for each drug in the combination.
		in chemical nomenclature, a name of a substance that does not reflect its chemical structure; many trivial names are semisystematic, e.g., the -ol in glycerol indicates that it is an alcohol.

	WHEN NAMES MAKE CLAIMS: ETHICAL ISSUES IN MEDICAL DEVICE MARKETING Ethics & Medicine - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In the United States, the generic and trade names (also known as brand names) of pharmaceuticals are formally evaluated prior to marketing; however, there is no formal process of name analysis for medical device brand names (personal communication, US Food and Drug administration, 28 March 2003).
		Generic drug names are created and assigned by the United States Adopted Names Council, which establishes logical nomenclature classifications based on pharmacological and/or chemical relationships (for example, angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors end in "pril").
		The trade names of devices such as implants might very well be significant for patients, especially in the case of products which are life sustaining (e.g., pacemaker) and where such patients carry identification cards that are a daily reminder of the device name.
