Advil is one of the world's most recognized brands for pain relief, specifically using Ibuprofen as its active ingredient. Originally developed in the 1960s by the Boots Company in the United Kingdom, the brand was launched in the United States in 1984 as an over-the-counter alternative to prescription pain killers.
Manufacturing of Advil takes place in several high-standard facilities globally, with a significant presence in the United States and Canada. Over the decades, ownership shifted through various pharmaceutical giants. Today, Advil is owned by Haleon, a global consumer healthcare leader that was formed through a demerger from GSK (GlaxoSmithKline) and Pfizer's consumer healthcare businesses, making it an independent company headquartered in the UK since 2022.
