Coca-Cola was invented by a pharmacist named John Pemberton. He carried the jug of the new product down the street to Jacob's Pharmacy where it was sampled and pronounced "excellent" and placed on sale for 5 cents a glass as a soda fountain drink. Another pharmacist, Charles Alderton, invented Dr. Pepper. Pepsi also was invented by a pharmacist, as was Vernor’s Ginger Ale by Detroit pharmacist James Vernor.

Allergy season hits fast, so the best defense is getting ahead of it. Start your allergy meds before symptoms show up, keep windows closed on high‑pollen days, shower after being outdoors, and consider a HEPA air purifier to cut down indoor allergens. Saline nasal rinses can also help clear out pollen. And if you’re not sure which OTC options are right for you, our pharmacists can point you in the right direction or discuss whether prescription treatments might help.
Stay prepared by checking the Kleenex® Pollen Pal forecaster—it gives you a 5‑day pollen outlook for your zip code so you can plan for high‑count days.
