Question

o a. it is an inactive substance.
o b. it is intended to ease pain but not cure disease.
o c. its name is always spelled with a capital letter.
o d. it is often named for its chemical structure.

Explanation:

Generic drugs are copies of brand - name drugs that have the same active ingredients. They are often named based on their chemical structure. An inactive substance is a placebo. Analgesics ease pain but not all generic drugs are analgesics. Generic drug names are in lowercase, while brand - name drugs start with a capital letter.

D. It is often named for its chemical structure.
