No, a generic name is a set of naming principles formulated with reference to some international naming conventions. It is universal, which means that no matter what manufacturer produces, as long as it is this ingredient, it is called this name. The trade name is that a certain manufacturer has given a commercial name to the medicine it produces. For example, soap is not called soap, but the product name is Shufujia. The soap produced by other manufacturers can't be called Shufujia, but their common names are all soap. (The list may not be appropriate, lz will understand). Not all drugs have trade names. Now, the national approval of trade names is very strict. It seems that only a certain level of new drugs can apply for trade names, and general generic drugs do not approve trade names now. Amoxicillin capsule is a generic name. The biggest name on the drug package is a generic name, and the font size of the trade name cannot exceed half of the generic name.
