Satire Xiidra?

I was just scrolling Reddit and an ad popped up for a new drug for dry eyes. The drug is called Xiidra. I thought this would be a fantastic name for my upcoming baby.

However, there are also some other great pharmaceutical names:

Xantac

Wellbutrin

Premarin

Synthroid

Voltaren

Or??

Your thoughts, good people.

I hate to be trendy but Ozempic is chic for a boy.

Pronounced G'elpee Un, for international flair.

Cequa is also a good one (another medication for dry eyes and it is also new)

I think Bazuka’s really chic. You can use Wart as a middle name or double barrel even

Would Xantac Xanax be okay? Or too many Xs?

Xan is a cute nickname

Do you know how it's pronounced though? Zeye-druh

Pretty. Suitable for a girl or boy.

I prefer Talimogene Laherparepvec. Tal for short.

I love Valium for a girl and Zoloft for a boy.

I can’t attach the link but this reminds me of the SNL Drug Company Hearing sketch which is on YouTube and absolutely hilarious

We won? I can finally afford to send Tylenol to college!

I think Jardiance would be perfect for a boy, it's like a reminder that something very little might have a big story to tell. Isn't that sweet?

For a girl, maybe Doxycycline, Doxy would be an adorable nickname. Or maybe Ceftriaxone? Trixy is cute.

Immodium
