Description |
Originally developed as a sedative for pediatric patients going into surgery, the fentanyl lollipop was the brainchild of Dr Ted Stanley. In 1985, Dr Stanley, along with business partner William Moeller founded Anesta Corp. to produce and market the preanesthetic sedative. In 1999, Anesta was sold for $444 million in stock. Dr Stanley's innovative idea resulted in one of the University's biggest company launches. |
