oh, I was agreeing about the fact that Huxley didn't invent the word soma. I am referring to the Sanskrit definition of Soma; Soma literally translates to a drink that is supposed to allow for rejuvenation in Sanskrit and is used in Hindu rituals. Thus the drug company might be using the word in that context.

Soma actually has a couple of meanings in Sanskrit, like the fact that Soma is also a moon god. It is variable.

Soma is a Sanskrit word, it is often used in Vedic texts to refer to an Elixir that rejuvenates and restored the body. I believe that is why they use this term because it connotates rejuvenation and relief from ailments.
