Person and Covey's dermatological products are developed specifically for physicians and their patients. Their commitment is to offer over-the-counter and prescription products physicians can recommend with confidence and patients can use with pleasure.
Person & Covey, Inc. was established in 1941. During that period, the company operated primarily as a pharmaceutical distributor and repackager of ethical prescription type products under its own firm label. Sales continued to grow steadily, and the firm progressed from ethical products designed principally of interest to retail pharmacists to products of interest to general medicine, internal medicine and ophthalmology.
By 1958 the firm had nine original or supplemental effective New Drug Applications on file with the Food and Drug Administration. In 1958, the firm was converting from a regional pharmaceutical to a national company. Mr. Lorne V. Person incorporated the firm in 1959 and it remains today a family owned company.
