Company Information
Novartis Consumer Health, Inc. is a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility that started business in 1908 as the Smith-Dorsey Company; becoming Dorsey Laboratories, a division of the Wander Company in the late 1950s; and merging with Sandoz Ltd. in the late 1960s to become Sandoz Pharmaceuticals Corporation. In December 1996 Sandoz Ltd. and Ciba-Geigy Ltd. merged to form Novartis AG, a world leader in the life sciences with pharmaceuticals, generics, consumer health, CIBA Vision, and animal health divisions.

The primary focus of the Lincoln facility is to produce high-quality over-the-counter pharmaceutical products for distribution within the United States. It is the primary manufacturer for Novartis Consumer Health, with manufacturing and packaging factories for solids, liquids, and semi-solid dosage forms; quality assurance laboratories; search and development laboratories; and various support functions (finance, materials management, project engineering, engineering operations, safety/security/environment and human resources). Lincoln is also the site of a nationwide distribution center for Novartis Consumer Health.

Some of the products manufactured and packaged at this location include the TRIAMINIC line of cough and cold products; MAALOX Liquid and Tablets; the TAVIST line; ASCRIPTIN; and LAMISIL Cream.

With nearly 500 associates at the Lincoln facility, growth is expected over the next few years as additional production is added. Our team-based culture has resulted in numerous process improvements and cost efficiencies for the site.
