Odol-med3 Antibacterial Mouthwash

Odol-med3 is a classic oral hygiene brand with deep roots in Germany, dating back to the late 19th century when the original 'Odol' mouthwash was developed by Karl August Lingner in Dresden. The brand evolved into the 'med3' line to emphasize triple protection against caries, gum problems, and tartar.

While the brand's heritage is firmly German, its manufacturing and ownership have transitioned significantly over the decades. Today, the brand is a core part of the oral care portfolio of Haleon, a major independent consumer healthcare company. Manufacturing for products like this mouthwash occurs in various specialized facilities across Europe and the UK to support its extensive distribution in German-speaking and international markets.

Haleon itself was formed in 2022 as a spin-off from the pharmaceutical giant GSK (GlaxoSmithKline), incorporating the consumer healthcare divisions of both GSK and Pfizer. As of 2026, Haleon operates as a fully independent public company listed on the London and New York stock exchanges.
