Brand
naming and testing pharmaceutical products requires depth of insight
into the industry.
We
specialize because it's important that you know:
°
What kinds of names are easy to write and to pronounce.
°
Which elements of the names connote "strength" or efficacy.
°
Which names are more easily marketed Direct To Consumer.
°
The possibility/probability that a certain name might be confused with another
product-directly affecting patient safety issues.
° What bearing a certain name will have on the FDA's drug review
process. With insight into the procedures of the FDA's Labeling &
Nomenclature Committee, we're better equipped to help in the approval
process.
For pharmaceutical naming, each naming group is comprised of both physicians
and creative group members. The MD's give us insight into their
specialties. The creative group members can then transform the
data into memorable and effective names.
Oftentimes, we'll get "knee jerk" reactions from the physicians during
the creative process. A more focused naming group produces better
results.
We
then check each name candidate for trademark availability and for similarities
to other Rx trade names. We
consider how each name will effect accuracy of prescribing or dispensing
the medication.
