Why this is not described as a brand

The DRAP register has no separate brand column, so an ingredient name and a trade name look identical in the data. This group is an ingredient: the products below are made by different companies under their own trade names, and no single company owns the word.

How these are grouped

These registrations are grouped by the words in their registered name. Strength, pack size, dosage form and trailing variant words such as Forte, Extra, CF, DS and XR are removed before grouping, so Panadol Tablet, Panadol CF Tablet and Panadol Extra Tablet count as one group. Names that only share a first word but mean different things — for example two companies' unrelated products — can still land together; the registered name of every row is shown so the grouping is checkable.
