Farmitalia was an Italian pharmaceutical company best known for its parallel discovery with Rhone-Poulenc of daunorubicin and subsequent discovery of doxorubicin.[1] Farmitalia had been founded in 1935 as a joint venture by Rhone-Poulenc and Montecatini.[2] Farmitalia occupied a position of choice in the world rankings of the profession, not only in Italy, but also at the world level with in particular the patent of Adriamycin, an anti-cancer drug qualified. From its creation, Farmaceutici Italia buys the Schiapparelli factory.[3]

In 1978, Farmitalia was merged with Carlo Erba SpA, an Italian pharmaceutical company that had been founded in 1853 by the pharmacist Carlo Erba [it], in which Montecatini had acquired a controlling interest in 1971. The merged company was called Farmitalia Carlo Erba SpA.[2]

Farmitalia Carlo Erba was acquired by Pharmacia in 1993,[4] then Pharmacia was acquired by Pfizer in 2003.[5]
