The company also produced other medicinal products, including throat sprays and lozenges. The headache powder was introduced in 1936. Since 1995 GlaxoSmithKline has produced Goody's Powders in Memphis, Tennessee. The company is selling Goody's and 16 other brands to Prestige Brands in a deal expected to take effect in 2012.
