In brief

What this company does

All the products that we market, except for Renacidin®, are produced at our facility in Hauppauge, New York. One of our most important product lines is our Lubrajel line of multifunctional hydrogel formulations, which are designed to provide sensory enhancement, lubrication, hydration, and texture to both personal care and medical products. Our pharmaceutical products are sold primarily to three national full-line drug wholesalers which in turn supply those products to pharmacies, physicians, and hospitals. We operate as a single business segment.

Written from the business description in United-Guardian, Inc.'s annual report to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, filed 27 March 2026. Every sentence was checked against that document before publication.
