What does TBMP mean on a drug listed as: Vimovo TBMP 12 hr?

Hello,

I do not think this is what you are looking for , but it is worth a try:

Trevose Behavior Modification Program (TBMP).- This deals with a long term obesity program designed in the early 70´s,it was founded by David S. Zelitch.-

I also found this, which makes more sense, at least to me!

Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP).-

Take care.-

TBMP = Tablet MultiPhasic, in your example: Vimovo TBMP 12 hr: "VIMOVO is available as an oval, yellow, multi-layer, delayed release tablet combining an enteric coated naproxen core and an immediate release esomeprazole magnesium layer surrounding the core." So there is an immediate release of the drug, and also a delayed release caused by the Enteric-Coating. Another drug in with the TBMP effect is ZyfloCR.
