Pfizer was founded in 1849 on Bartlett Street in Brooklyn. Two immigrant cousins, chemist Charles Pfizer and confectioner Charles Erhart, combined their skills to produce santonin, an almond-flavored treatment for intestinal worms that became an immediate sensation. Pfizer was launched. From those humble beginnings, Pfizer has brought forth treatments that have transformed conditions such as cancer, heart disease and HIV/AIDS from virtual death sentences to chronic conditions that can be managed – and increasingly overcome.
