Bell's Healthcare Ibuprofen 200mg Coated Tablets

Bell’s Healthcare Ibuprofen is a widely available over-the-counter pain relief medication in the United Kingdom. The brand has a deep-rooted history, originating from a pharmacy established in Preston, Lancashire, in 1848 by Bell, Sons & Co. Over nearly two centuries, the company evolved from a local druggist into a significant pharmaceutical manufacturer, surviving the challenges of WWII and eventually relocating its primary manufacturing operations to purpose-built facilities in Southport and Widnes.

In 2008, the heritage British brand was acquired by Marksans Pharma, a global pharmaceutical company based in India. Despite this change in ultimate ownership, the brand maintains its British identity, with the majority of its products still being manufactured within the United Kingdom at its MHRA-approved factory complex in Widnes. Today, it serves as a major supplier for both its own-label products and contract manufacturing for leading UK supermarkets, ensuring high standards of quality and compliance across international markets.
