Johnson & Johnson (J&J) was founded 121 years ago based on the need for sterile medical supplies to treat patient’s wounds. Post-operative mortality rates were a grim 90% and after attending a seminar on “antisepsis” Robert Wood Johnson, an apothecary, saw this as an opportunity to start a much needed company. With $100,000 in capital and the help of his brothers, James and Edward, they established Johnson & Johnson. Their prospect with J&J was “to manufacture and sell medical, pharmaceutical, surgical and antiseptic specialties and analgesic goods.”

Word spread very quickly about the drug that cured the President’s son and quickly became adopted by maternity hospitals to treat childbed fever and various consumers to treat strep infections. Since this life saving drug was cheap and has few side effects, the popularity and demand for Prontosil skyrocketed to the point that U.S. production companies were not even able to meet the demands of the consumers at one point.

There were restrictions to introduce new products, and price control became stricter while limiting the freedom of doctors to prescribe medications. Patent controls were becoming reduced, and the pharmaceutical industry was becoming increasingly criticized. These trends later made the industry to

The Medicines Company used the saying “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure,” to the next level. It essentially took what other pharmaceutical companies place on the shelves and never use again as their next product which becomes a money maker. The idea is a great idea if it is well executed. The company cannot take just any type of drug and try to execute it pouring in millions of dollars’ worth of research and development because if the product is not chosen carefully, the product will fail. A simple failure for a drug that was not carefully selected, can damage the company’s image and reputation.

Eli Lilly was approached by a leading pharmaceutical firm in India to consider building a joint venture together. Ranbaxy Laboratories began as a family business in the 1960’s, but with strong entrepreneurial skills the company grew to become one of the largest manufacturers for bulk drugs and generic drugs. The two companies considered pursuing a joint venture that would support on another’s products by supplying one other with ingredients to complete company products without having to trade with other companies internationally. The JV would potentially lead both companies, together to become a dominant force in the Indian market.

In the late 1970s, Merck was falling off a 10-year dry season as far as new items. For about 10 years, the organization had depended on two physician endorsed drugs for a critical rate of its around $2 billion in yearly deals: Indocin, a treatment for rheumatoid joint inflammation, and Aldomet, a treatment for hypertension.

Horan, were worried that the 17-year patent security on Merck's two major moneymakers would soon terminate, and started putting a tremendous sum in research.
