Listerine is a globally recognized brand of antiseptic mouthwash products. It was originally formulated in the United States in 1879 as a general surgical antiseptic by Dr. Joseph Lawrence and Jordan Wheat Lambert. The brand was named after Joseph Lister, a pioneer in antiseptic surgery. In terms of manufacturing, Listerine is produced in multiple facilities across several countries to serve regional international markets.

Starting in 2023, the brand became part of Kenvue, a transition that saw the spin-off of Johnson & Johnson’s consumer health division into a standalone company. Kenvue is now the ultimate owner of Listerine as of 2024 and beyond. The brand continues to innovate with alcohol-free formulations and varied flavors to maintain its leadership in the oral hygiene market.
