Be Healthier
Our North America Consumer Healthcare business is proud to be a B Corp, helping lead a global movement for a healthier world.
What is a B Corp?
Becoming a B Corp means we’re part of a community that’s transforming business into a force for good. It’s one of the most well respected – not to mention difficult – certifications for an organization to earn. And a big step to championing better self-care for people, communities, and the planet.
B Corp Demonstrates Our Brands’ Commitment to Better Health
As the makers of Allegra, Dulcolax, Icy Hot and Unisom, we’re working to build a healthier future by helping people take care of themselves through our consumer-inspired, science-based products. This certification recognizes our work to increase our products’ positive impact on both people and the planet, like reducing unnecessary packaging, cutting down waste, sourcing more responsibly and supporting the wellbeing of communities where we do business.

Here are some of the ways we’re helping to support healthier people and planet – and they’re only just the start.
Comebaq Courts: Changing Lives and Communities
In partnership with Shaq, Icy hot is helping kids in underserved communities get back in the game, rebuilding basketball courts that could use some TLC, ensuring that more communities have spaces to be active again. As of 2021, Combaq Courts has built or renovated over 70 basketball courts and engaged with more than 20,000 young people.
Accelerating a Waste-Free Future
Our Allegra and Xyzal brands are working to remove packaging waste, eliminating the plastic windows on packaging to ensure the cartons are plastic-free and fully recyclable. This will eliminate 3.7 metric tons of plastic on an annual basis.
Restoring Woodlands In Chattanooga
Our Chattanooga site has a partnership with the Lookout Mountain Conservancy, which works to protect significant scenic, historic and ecological sites in the Lookout Mountain area, which spans across three states. The facility has donated funds to support greenhouse and trail maintenance and employees regularly participate in volunteer events to help with conservation efforts.
Living Our Purpose Through Volunteering
Every year, each of our Consumer Healthcare sites participates in Purpose Day, when employees embrace their purpose and values in serving healthier and fuller lives by participating in a volunteer event in our community.
