Etymology

Atromid-S is a brand name for the drug clofibrate, not a regular English word, so its parts were made for a product name. A helpful way to remember Atromid-S is to link it with clofibrate and its job of lowering 'blood fats', such as cholesterol, so think of it as the medicine that helps reduce fat in the blood.
