E-DRUG: Drugs or Medicines? (5)
---------------------------------

Just to add my half-penny worth to discussion about change of name of E-DRUG to e-medicine:

I typed in Google e-medicine: got 2,080,000 hits, then I typed in E-DRUG got 191,000 hits with top of the list Essentialdrugs.org. 
Conclusion:we got ourselves a recognised brand name!

While I am all for prescribing, buying, etc. generic medicines I would be very disappointed to see   "E-DRUG" changing to a drop in the ocean of "generic"  e-medicine websites, web-pages, etc. on the internet. 

More seriously, E-DRUG has an identity with a virtual community behind it and an impressive web-archive containing a decade of information for essential drug programs, policy makers, rational drug use education, etc. Lets keep this identity. 

Thank you Satellife and E-DRUG moderators for making E-DRUG a succesful forum and a useful resource for many of us.
