You could get a headache trying to name all of Bayer AG's products. The company, which created aspirin in 1897, makes health care products (pharmaceuticals, OTC drugs, and animal health care), specialty materials (plastics and high-performance materials), and agricultural products (for crop protection and home garden care). It operates in the US through Bayer Corporation. Besides its line of Bayer aspirins, the company's best-known consumer brands include Aleve, Alka-Seltzer, and One-A-Day vitamins. Its top selling pharmaceuticals include multiple sclerosis treatment Betaseron and birth control pill Yasmin. Overall, Bayer (which is also referred to as Bayer Group) has some 315 operating companies worldwide.
