I\\u2019m publishing one podcast episode per day in the month of November 2020 as part of a challenge called NaPodPoMo.\\xa0 It stands for National Podcast Post Month.\\xa0 November is National Podcast Post Month, and the goal of the challenge is 30 podcast episodes in 30 days. This is a bite-sized episode, which I\\u2019m using to help promote my new online course:\\xa0 Pronounce Drug Names Like a Pro.\\xa0

Today\\u2019s episode is about sounding out drug names.\\xa0 Life would be easier if we could just sound out drug names to get the right pronunciation.\\xa0 Wouldn\\u2019t it?\\xa0 For example, when a person learns how to read, they say each sound in a word slowly and then say the sounds together more quickly. \\xa0Unfortunately, it\\u2019s not that easy with generic drug names.\\xa0 That\\u2019s why there are resources like the USP Dictionary Online; it provides written pronunciations of US Adopted Names.\\xa0 In my course, I teach how to break down written pronunciations so you can sound them out.\\xa0
