Ear Care in the US
The sale of Debrox to Prestige Brands marked GlaxoSmithKline’s departure from ear care in the US. Given that GlaxoSmithKline formerly led sales, the move represented a strategic shake-up in a category that witnessed very little development over the review period. The acquisition gives Prestige a majority share of ear care, placing it in a strong competitive position against both private label and smaller branded competitors.
