Name Pairs You Will Hear

The idea

A few generic and brand pairs come up constantly in outpatient practice.

In practice

Atorvastatin is sold as Lipitor, furosemide as Lasix, warfarin as Coumadin, acetaminophen as Tylenol, and ibuprofen as Advil.

Where people slip

When a patient lists a brand name, record it as given, and let the provider or pharmacist confirm the generic.
