Request for information on the average drugs (5)
************************************************

Mr.Raj Vaidya, Please tell us what is the full brand name of this ointment.
This is an important issue of naming and branding which needs to be addressed in various ways. One way is to stop prescribing drugs of bigger companies which have many subsidiaries, and sales force units, with different trade names for the same drug, and taxing the whole distribution chain including prescribers, and causing tremendous problems. Also, important changes like in this ointment cannot be done by adding prefixes, and suffixes, and we can start an initiative to address this problem.
