Pronunciation Series Episode 15: Humira (adalimumab)
How do you say Humira\xae and adalimumab?\xa0 Unfortunately, you can\u2019t sound out drug names.\xa0 They\u2019re not pronounced the way they look. \U0001f440
Humira\xae is one of the top 200 drugs in the US.\xa0 It\u2019s a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blocker.\xa0 Humira\xae is the brand name, and adalimumab is the generic (non-proprietary) name. \xa0
In my pronunciation episodes, I break drug names down into syllables, explain which syllable(s) have the emphasis, reveal the source of the information, and put the written pronunciations in the show notes so that you see them and use them right away.
The purpose of these\xa0pronunciation episodes is to provide the intended pronunciations of drug names from reliable sources so that you feel more confident saying them and less frustrated learning them.\xa0 I hope this episode helps you! \U0001f973
This episode has a YouTube video, which shows the written pronunciations of Humira\xae and adalimumab.
