Did you know? Listerine was invented in the nineteenth century
as a surgical antiseptic. Soon afterward it was sold unsuccessfully
as a floor cleaner and a cure for everything from chapped hands to
gonorrhea. In the 1920's, however, the makers of Listerine hit pay
dirt when they pitched it as a remedy for bad breath.
Interestingly, halitosis was not necessarily considered a problem
until Listerine made it one. Listerine was pitched as a remedy, but
Listerine the company also produced the Listerine Cigarette! By the
1930s Listerine was positioned as a cure for dandruff, even though
it is not clear dandruff was something that had to be cured. The
phrase always a bridesmaid, never a bride was popularized by a
1930s advertisement for Listerine. Contact the Robert Wood Johnson
Library of the Health Sciences for your information needs.
http://libraries.umdnj.edu/rwjlbweb Listerine was named for Joseph
Lister, a British surgeon and pioneer of antiseptic surgery. Read
more about Dr. Lister in the March 2007 issue of the Journal of the
American College of Physicians.
