"South African Druggists (SA Druggists) is the largest wholly South African-owned pharmaceutical company. It works in a number of areas, including: the development, production and marketing of pharmaceutical products (included in this division are the Dutch Lennon products); the marketing and distribution of various products within South Africa.... SA Druggists has recently launched an expanded phytomedicine programme, which will involve extensive research into local species and traditional medicinal uses. The Lennon Dutch medicines are based primarily on European species and were developed more than 100 years ago." for details
In the Adler Museum Bulletin 1988 Oct;14(2):2-10 there is an article entitled the "History of Lennon Limited" (no authors listed). I have yet to obtain the text of this article published by the Adler Museum of Medicine, Johannesburg. The Adler Museum Bulletin publishes papers in the field of historical research in medicine and allied health sciences.
