HistoryWilliam H. Luden created the Luden's brand in 1879. Early products included cough drops and candy. Luden gave samples of his cough drops to railroad workers, giving the product national exposure in an early example of guerrilla marketing.[2]Luden’s was acquired in 1928 by Food Industries of Philadelphia, a holding company owned by the Dietrich family. During its heyday under Dietrich ownership, Luden’s produced more than 500 varieties of candy in addition to its better-known cough drops and employed more than 1,200 people.[3] In 1967 animator Ed Seeman and musician Frank Zappa worked together on a television commercial for Luden’s Cough Drops.[3] The commercial won a Clio award for Zappa’s soundtrack.[3] In 1980 the company acquired Queen Anne Candy Co., based in Hammond, Indiana. The Dietrich family sold Luden’s Inc. to Hershey Foods Corp in 1986, resulting in the termination of 98 salaried and 350 hourly workers.[4] Luden's Throat Drops brand was sold by Hershey's to Pharmacia in 2001. In 2003, Pharmacia was acquired by Pfizer[https://web.archive.org/web/20060617214130/http://www.pfizer.com/pfizer/history/2003.jsp]. In 2006, Pfizer sold its consumer products division, including the Luden's line, to Johnson & Johnson.[2] As of 2008, packages of Luden's throat drops displayed the slogan "Trusted Luden's Care - Everyone needs a little TLC".[5] In November 2009 Charlesbank Capital Partners/Blacksmith Brands announced that it had completed its acquisition of Ludens over-the-counter consumer products brands from McNEIL-PPC, Inc.[6][7] In late 2010, Prestige Brands acquired Blacksmith Brands.[7] IngredientsLuden's brand throat drops are demulcents (meaning a swelling or irritation reliever) and mild oral anesthetics. The active ingredient in fruit flavors is pectin, a soluble gelatinous polysaccharide found in ripe fruits. Pectin places a coating on the throat to reduce irritation and swelling. Original Menthol and the various Honey flavors contain menthol, an oral anesthetic and irritant reliever.[8][9] The drops' inactive ingredients include FD&C blue No. 1, FD&C blue 2, FD&C red 40, ascorbic acid, citric acid, malic acid, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, caramel color, corn syrup, flavors, sodium acetate, soybean oil used as a processing aid, sucrose, and water.[8][9] References1. ^ http://www.ludens.com/sore-throat-remedies/ 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://readingeagle.com/article.aspx?id=54964 |title=The Luden story |publisher=The Reading Eagle (newspaper) |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAUvFst5bOI |title=ZAPPA'S LUDEN'S COUGH DROPS |publisher=youtube.com |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://readingeagle.com/article.aspx?id=54968 |title=From Luden’s Mother’s Kitchen to the World |publisher=The Reading Eagle (newspaper) |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.trademarkia.com/trusted-ludens-care-77626351.html |title=TRUSTED LUDEN'S CARE |publisher=Legal Force Trademarkia |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.charlesbank.com/news/archive/2009/charlesbank-capital-partners-acquires-five-consumer-products-from-mcneil-ppc/ |title=Charlesbank Capital Partners Acquires Five Consumer Products From McNeil-PPC |publisher=Charlesbank Capital Partners, LLC |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 7. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.biosciencetechnology.com/news/2010/11/charlesbank-sells-blacksmith-brands-prestige-brands#.Um0eIhKT5E4 |title=Charlesbank Sells Blacksmith Brands to Prestige Brands |publisher=Bioscience Technology |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 8. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=5dc2baec-a9ed-4f6b-a7ed-76a5d35739ac |title=LUDENS ORIGINAL MENTHOL THROAT DROPS (menthol) lozenge LUDENS HONEY LICORICE THROAT DROPS (menthol) lozenge LUDENS HONEY LEMON THROAT DROPS (menthol) lozenge |publisher=Daily Med |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} 9. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=adfb248a-96bb-4742-9df6-c47edccdd671 |title=LUDENS WILD CHERRY THROAT DROPS (pectin) lozenge LUDENS BERRY ASSORTMENT THROAT DROPS (pectin) lozenge |publisher=Daily Med |accessdate=October 27, 2013}} External links
