info_outlineAs we work our way through the alphabet from A to Z in my drug pronunciation series, we’re on the letter “J.” I wanted to pick a popular generic drug name that starts with “J” for today’s episode. It turns out that the letter “J” should be avoided in naming generic drugs, according to the United States Adopted Names Council. Therefore, there are very few generic drug names that start with the letter “J.” Instead, I chose a brand-name drug that starts with “J.”

- Emphasize WAR, and slur “far” and “in” together. It should sound like, “fur-in.”

- Emphasize JAN. Then, say "tow" (like a tow truck) and "ven" (like eleven)
