Firmagon = Firm is gone (he he he he he....)

I realized that as well. Someone in the naming department has a wicked sense of humor. And a lot of “I warned you so’s”. It’s not as if it isn’t in the brand name.

Lots of common drug names are very appropriate. The drug companies do a good job in naming.

Ambien -- Ambient, plus AM Bien which kind of means "good morning" in Spanglish

Lunesta -- Moon plus siesta

Flomax -- pretty obvious

Nitrostat -- nitroglycerin with "stat" meaning "ASAP"

Celebrex -- Celebrating the lack of pain

Abilify -- Making you able to do things

Vomisin -- (anti-nausea drug) wordplay on "vomit"

etc.

Yes, whoever came up with that name had a fiendish sense of humor…
