Pepto Bismol is an iconic over-the-counter medication known for its distinct pink color and its efficacy in treating various digestive issues. The brand was originally developed in the early 20th century in Norwich, New York, by a doctor named G.P. Peck. It was first marketed as 'Bismosal: Mixture Cholera Infantum' by the Norwich Pharmacal Company to treat life-threatening infant diarrhea.
Today, the brand is owned by Procter & Gamble (P&G), which acquired it as part of its expansion into the healthcare and personal care sectors. Most Pepto Bismol products sold in the North American market are manufactured in the United States, specifically at P&G facilities such as those in Phoenix, Arizona. As an international brand, it remains a staple in household medicine cabinets for the relief of nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, and diarrhea.
