In 1872, Henry Bower, an employee of Wyeth, developed one of the first rotary compressed tablet machines in the United States.

In 1999 another American Home Products merger fell apart, this time a proposed $34 billion merger-of-equals with chemical and biotech manufacturer Monsanto. Though the companies issued a combined statement saying the breakup was mutual "because (the deal) was not in the best interests of shareholders", rumors swirled that AHP had called the deal off due to issues in the soon-to-be-combined boardroom. Monsanto announced in December of 1999 that it would merge with Pharmacia & Upjohn instead, who eventually spun Monsanto back off before being bought themselves by Pfizer in 2003. 1999 (MCMXCIX) was a common year starting on Friday, and was designated the International Year of Older Persons by the United Nations. ...

2000–present

• In 2000 American Home Products lost a $65 billion friendly takeover bid for rival drug company Warner-Lambert in their most dramatic merger loss yet. After the merger announcement, Pfizer offered a competing hostile bid, primarily to save their half of a Lipitor joint venture with Warner (at the time the #1 Rx drug in the world). At one point talks were under way in which Procter & Gamble would help by buying both companies in a wild three-way merger, a rumor which cost P&G a 10% drop in its stock price. Eventually, despite both CEOs going on tour to defend the deal to shareholders, Pfizer won Warner-Lambert and formed the second largest drug company in the world, while AHP had to settle for a $1.8 billion poison pill payment.

• Robert Essner, the company's current CEO, was appointed in 2001.

• In 2002, American Home Products changed its name to Wyeth, having spun off unrelated businesses in order to focus on pharmaceuticals.

• After large-scale scientific trials showed long term use of Prempro may increase risks of strokes, heart attacks, blood clots, and breast cancer, Wyeth experienced a significant decline in its sales of Premarin, Prempro (conjugated equine estrogens) and related hormones^{[citation needed]}, from over $2 billion in 2002 to $880,000,000 in 2004.[1] The results from the study were alarming enough that the trials were terminated due to a fear that their participants may be at risk. Although it is a corporation, Wyeth subsequently filed a 'citizens complaint' with the FDA on October 16, 2005, requesting that the US FDA prohibit pharmacies from providing bio-identical hormones to their patients. If honored, the request would undercut competitors, primarily those engaged in alternative medicine. See Hormone replacement therapy.

• The European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Protection blamed the presence of illegal steroids in the food supply on "fraudulent exchange and disposal of pharmaceutical waste". A Wyeth factory disposing of the byproducts from synthetic progesterone manufacture was the source of the contamination. [2]

• In 2003 Wyeth reportedly contributed funds to a not-for-profit support group, The Meningitis Centre, which lobbies the Australian Government to introduce universal immunisation against pneumococcal disease.[3]. Wyeth produces the only pneumococcal vaccine approved for young children in Australia.
