Abstract
New therapeutics in neurology are expanding at an unprecedented pace. In addition to the classic enzyme-replacement therapies, monoclonal antibodies are increasingly being used to modulate autoimmunity. RNA therapeutics are an emerging class, together with gene and cell therapies. The nomenclature of international nonproprietary names helps us to recognize these new drugs according to their class and function. Suffixes denote major categories of the drug, while infixes provide additional information such as the source and target.
