This page redirects from Ciba-Geigy. This seems wrong to me, as the Ciba-Geigy / Sandoz merger led to:
|counter = 1
- Novartis being created by merging the pharma divisions.
|minthreadsleft = 1
- Syngenta being created out of Ciba Ag division.
|minthreadstoarchive = 1
- Ciba Specialty Chemicals being created out of Additives (and Polymers?)
|algo = old(60d)
- Ciba SC was recently acquired by BASF.
|archive = Talk:Novartis/Archive %(counter)d

}}
Ciba Geigy was not simply renamed "Novartis" after a merger with Sandoz - I believe the above divisions were *never* part of the combined Novartis, and there may be more to the above than I have listed. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 15:29, 12 March 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Sandoz == == Animal Health? ==
This article says that Sandoz produces generics. I thought Sandoz became Novartis. SO Sandoz is still around under the name Sandoz? ] July 1, 2005 03:19 (UTC)

No, some time after the merger, Novartis relaunched their generics under the brandname "Sandoz". The Sandoz company before the merger and the Novartis Sandoz brand have totaly differend product ranges. (the generics from both merger companies) ] 03:30, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

'''1986 Chemical Spill?'''

The page ] points to the Novartis page in reference to the Sandoz chemical spill into the Rhine River in 1986. However, there is merely a passing reference to the incident, with no details. If someone is able to add a summary of the incident that briefly describes the environmental and human health effects, it would make the link from the aforementioned page much more valuable. (I will see if I can find the time to do so, but if someone else has done the research already, a one-paragraph summary would be great.) <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 18:12, 5 May 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Huntingdon Life Sciences ==

Hello, I would like to add a section about Novartis and Huntingdon Life Sciences and the animal rights campaign, Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty. Here is what I have so far:
"Novartis has come under lots of fire because they are one of Huntingdon Life Science's biggest customers. Since 1999, Novartis offices have been vandalized and even firebombed. In addition, there have been lots of home pickets at Novartis executive’s homes, which still continue today." ] (]) 22:26, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Animal Health?

Novartis sold their Animal Health division to Lilly 7 or 8 years ago, Lilly has since spun it off into Elanco. I would edit the page but it would be a conflict of interest; I suggest someone take the initiative upon themselves to do so. CastAStone/ 19:19, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
