About Warner-Lambert
Warner–Lambert was a large U.S.-based pharmaceutical company engaged in a range of business activities. The company was founded in 1856 when William Warner launched his own drug store in Philadelphia. He started his business by producing sweet tasting tablets to encase unpleasant tasting medicines. His business was merged with Lambert Pharmacal Company in 1955, creating Warner-Lambert Pharmaceutical Company. Lambert Pharmacal Company was famous for its Listerine product. The new company grew through a strategy of acquisitions. The company acquired American Chicle Company in 1962, well known as the producer of Chiclets. The company also acquired Parke-Davis in 1970, once the world's largest drug maker. The company acquired Wilkinson Sword in 1993. Warner-Lambert was eventually acquired by Pfizer in 2000.
