Mission Pharmacal, a family-owned company based in San Antonio, acquired the Dr. Smith’s brand of skin-care products in 2009. The brand was rich in heritage and authenticity. Dr. Smith’s creator and namesake, Forrest M. Smith, was a beloved pediatrician who started his pediatric practice in Texas in 1952. He believed in creating a better way to help his young patients and worked to perfect a premium blend of ingredients that parents have trusted to treat diaper rash for more than 50 years.
Today, as part of the Mission Pharmacal family of products, Dr. Smith’s continues a legacy of innovation and dedication to soothing skin irritations. The company strives to deliver effective products that promote comfortable skin for all ages.
