SMITHKLINE BEECHAM RESEARCH LTD

SMITHKLINE BEECHAM RESEARCH LTD in the Philippines was a manufacturing entity.

Company Introduction:

SmithKline Beecham was a major global pharmaceutical, consumer healthcare, and nutritional products company. Formed in 1989 from the merger of SmithKline Beckman and Beecham Group, it was a prominent player in the pharmaceutical industry known for its extensive research and development capabilities. The company was involved in the discovery, development, manufacturing, and marketing of a wide range of prescription medicines, vaccines, and popular over-the-counter consumer health products. Its presence in the Philippines, including entities like SMITHKLINE BEECHAM RESEARCH LTD, would have primarily focused on pharmaceutical manufacturing, research support, and the distribution of its products within the local and regional markets. SmithKline Beecham ceased to exist as an independent company in 2000 when it merged with Glaxo Wellcome to form GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). Therefore, SMITHKLINE BEECHAM RESEARCH LTD was integral to these manufacturing and research-driven operations, rather than solely a trading company.

SmithKline Beecham Research Ltd. was a research and development division and did not directly manufacture or sell finished products. However, prior to its merger into GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), its parent company, SmithKline Beecham, offered various pharmaceutical and consumer healthcare products in the Philippines. These products included:

Augmentin (antibiotic)

Seroxat / Paxil (antidepressant)

Kytril (antiemetic)

Tagamet (ulcer treatment)

Amoxil (antibiotic)

Aquafresh (toothpaste)

Sensodyne (toothpaste for sensitive teeth)

Panadol (pain reliever)

Tums (antacid)

Horlicks (malt drink)
