Medicine Nomenclature

2022-06-02 17:09:08
What is the meaning of 'Forte' which is present in many medincine brand name ? For example there are medicines like Benfomet Forte, Nexito Forte, Becozyme C Forte , Enzar Forte etc. We can see all these end with Forte. I observed all these medications are combo medication. I guess Forte is nothing but 'Plus' . Is my understanding correct ? PS : Please don't suggest consultation just to provide this information. If you are aware what does 'Forte' mean then share with me.

Forte may also mean it is a double dose. I am sure you must have read Shakespeare in your younger days, ago "What is there in a name!". Be happy that you learnt something new. Now also learn what is SR , ER, .
