Wikipedia - Organon International

Organon is a human pharmaceutical company headquartered in Oss, Netherlands. In November 2007 the company became a part of Schering-Plough Corporation, which acquired Organon and its veterinary pharmaceutical sister company Intervet from Akzo Nobel. In November 2009 Schering-Plough merged with Merck & Co. under the name Merck & Co., known as Merck Sharp & Dohme or MSD outside the United States and Canada.

Organon deals in the following core therapeutic fields: reproductive medicine, contraception, psychiatry, HRT and anesthesia. Organon sells to international markets.

Organon was founded by Dr. Saal van Zwanenberg in Oss, the Netherlands, in 1923 as Zwanenberg-Organon. Its first product was insulin. In the thirties it manufactured estrogens. The production of cortison was initiated in 1953. The now named Koninklijke Zwanenberg-Organon (KZO) fused with the fiber producer AKU in 1969 to become AKZO, later Akzo Nobel. Organon is the human health care business unit of Akzo Nobel and transferred its headquarters to the USA while the main headquarter of Akzo Nobel remained in Arnhem, and has since moved to Amsterdam. Manufacturing facilities are in the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, Ireland, China, Japan, and the USA.

Products include: Bridion, Remeron, Remeron SolTab, Sustanon, Deca-Durabolin, Pregnyl, Implanon, NuvaRing, Marvelon, Desolett and a variety of other contraceptive products.
