industrial-scale production of penicillin in 1950 terramicina, was the first product that came to the public under the
name of Pfizer. In 1998 Pfizer launched Viagra. At present, and after various mergers undertaken with Pharmacia and
Parka Davis, It is the world's leading laboratory in the pharmaceutical sector. Within its product portfolio it contains
Atorvastatin (cholesterol), which is the drug with the most billing within the Spanish market.
Azithromycin, more commonly called Zithromax, fits into the group of drugs, identified as antibacterial or antibiotics
and was introduced by the company Pfizer into the market. These medicines destroy bacteria that result in infections in
humans or can also be used to prevent bacteria growth. Pfizer has been questioned for a wild experimentation Azithromycin
