Marketing - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / New product Q&A
English term or phrase: indication
This is a Q&A for a new product. One of the questions is:
Where else is (Product Name) approved and what is the indication?

The answer is:
(Product Name) is approved in (Country Name) under the brand name XXXX.

In this case, does "indication" mean brand name, trade name, etc.?

If this is the case, is it customary to use the word "indication" as opposed to "brand name" in a sentense like, "what is the indication?"
