- Keep - per this ref that states, "Redoxon is the brand name of the first artificially synthesized Vitamin c to be sold to the public." or this one that says, "Roche proudly unveiled Redoxen in 1934, the first mass-manufactured synthetic vitamin in history." -Marcusmax(speak) 00:36, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Redoxon is a huge brand in Europe and Asia. -- Fuzheado | Talk 09:43, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The article definitely needs rescuing, particularly since the text "Redoxon is the brand name of the first artificially synthesised Vitamin C to be sold to the public" makes it sound like this is a new product being promoted by Roche. As Marcus points out, it was introduced in 1934 [1]. The article doesn't do justice to the importance of synthesizing ascorbic acid Vitamin C in a form where 1000 mg could be put into one pill, but this was one of the original vitamin supplements.
