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.
By the 1930’s 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 1930’s advertisement for
Listerine.
Listerine was pitched as a remedy,
but Listerine the company also
produced the Listerine Cigarette!
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.
