Owner:The Procter & Gamble Company (USA)
OriginUSA
Manufactured:Multiple countries

Vicks NyQuil is a globally recognized over-the-counter medication designed to relieve multi-symptom cold and flu ailments during the night. The brand trace its origins back to 1894 in Greensboro, North Carolina, USA, where pharmacist Lunsford Richardson developed a line of remedies under the Vicks name. NyQuil specifically was introduced as a revolutionary liquid multi-symptom relief product in 1966, departing from the standard pill formats of that era.

The brand was family-owned through Richardson-Vicks, Inc. for nearly a century until it was acquired by the consumer goods giant Procter & Gamble (P&G) in 1985. Today, P&G remains the ultimate owner of the brand. Manufacturing is decentralized to serve global markets; while a significant portion of production remains in the United States, it is also produced in facilities across India and other regions under P&G's global supply chain network. In certain markets, such as German-speaking countries, the brand is marketed as 'Wick' to avoid linguistic complications.
