Generic vs trade namesFrom: John Robertson MD (john.robertson@obgyn.net)Tue Jul 18 09:15:35 2000
I was corrected by a lurker with respect ot teh contents of Tylenol #3. She correctly pointed out to me that in her "PDR" (which I (hopefully correctly) assume is the "Physicians Desk Reference") it says Tylenol #3 contains only Acetaminophen and Codiene. In my "CPS" which is a "Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties" it lists Tylenol #3 as having 15mg of caffeine in each pill. Once again it emphasizes the need for using generic names - especially on an international forum. I can't even say Tylenol #3 and mean the same thing in 2 countries. John

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
