What does IND stand for?

  1. Innovative New Drug

  2. Investigational New Drug

  3. International Naming of Drugs

  4. Immediate Need for Drug

The correct answer is: Investigational New Drug

The acronym IND stands for Investigational New Drug. This refers to a drug that is undergoing clinical trials and has not yet been approved by the FDA for use in the general population. Option A, Innovative New Drug, may seem like a plausible answer, but this does not accurately reflect the meaning of IND. Option C, International Naming of Drugs, is incorrect because IND specifically refers to a stage in the drug development process, not the naming of drugs. Option D, Immediate Need for Drug, is also incorrect as it does not accurately reflect the meaning of IND.
