I think my new favorite word is "Candesartan". Doesn't it just roll right off the tongue? It reminds me of so many lovely things all at once: candles, satin, candy; and it just has an exotic ring to it. If I didn't know what it was I would think it was a kind of fancy foreign sweets, like they sell in really nice candy stores. It just sounds smooth and creamy and delicious.

However, the reality is far less interesting. It's a lowly blood pressure pill, an angiotensin receptor blocker, to be specific. But it sounds like it could be something so much sweeter...
