Etymology

Aristopak is a brand name, but a helpful way to remember it is to read it as aristo- 'best' plus pak 'pack' or 'package', like a 'best pack' of medicine. It is a man-made steroid medicine used to reduce swelling and inflammation, so thinking of a strong 'best pack' treatment helps you remember it is a powerful anti-inflammatory.
